United Projects for Aviation Services Company (UPAC), a commercial real estate and facilities management company, organized a tree planting initiative with Green Hands Environmental Team, a local non-profit organization in celebration of Earth Day 2022.
The initiative was themed ‘Let’s make it Green’ and took place in several schools in the Al Andalus and Adailiya areas, including: Abdul Aziz Alrashid Primary School for Boys, Arwa Bint Abdul Mutaleb Secondary School for Girls, Saad Bin Obada Primary School for Boys, Sherifa Al-Awadi High School for Girls. At the schools, the Green Hands Environmental team trained all the volunteers as well as the students on how to plant trees correctly.
The volunteers from UPAC along with the students and some of the school’s management participated in the event and helped with the planting initiative. UPAC’s support to Green Hands Environmental Team included the donation of 1000 plants which were planted, as well as water pipes and special watering connections to be utilized in the gardens. In addition, Green Hands team also provided labor workers to help in preparing the areas to be planted.
