“Together we can make a better World”  




Areas of Assistance

 

Sustainable development is one of the most important concerns of our time. Our planet is critically threatened by environmental degradation, extreme poverty, and widespread hunger. Tackling these complex challenges requires an extraordinary level of co-operation among people throughout the world and the belief that human problems can be solved.

We decided to embark on this campaign practically starting with the local people because this is a Global problem which affects every body equally.

 

For the “LET’S GO GREEN” Plant a tree campaign to prosper, we intend to hold monthly workshops every second Saturday of the month and later we shall begin doing it twice a month and then on a weekly basis in various parts of the country depending on the availability of funds.

 

      How to conduct the Tree Planting Exercise.

 

· Through the help of the local authorities in the area of operation.

· By calling local council meetings which involves residents of the area.

Through these village meetings, we intend to distribute Tree seedlings for planting to the residents.

 

Earlier this year [2010], Nansana Town council Authorities had taken an initiative to plant trees at the sides of all roads in the area of the Town council but all the Trees that were Planted weathered due to lack of care i.e. watering and creating protection barriers around them and so, with CTF,care will be guaranteed. 

 

We intend to start the practical campaign on Saturday 8th January 2011 and expect our program to go on as follows:

 

 -Saturday 8th January 2011 at Nabweru Sub county headquarters

 -Saturday 12th February 2011 at Nansana Town council headquarters

 -Saturday 12th March 2011 at Wakiso Town council headquarters.

 

We plan to give away campaign T-shirts reading “LET’S GO GREEN” plant a Treeto community members.

 

Currently we have no funds to kick off the campaign, therefore, we request you to be part of the “LET’S GO GREEN” plant a Tree campaign.
