Distribution of Eid gifts and tree plantation at SOS Village

Karachi: Ufone is helping to promote various green initiatives that will lead to an environmentally sustainable planet. SOS Pakistan recently built a new establishment boasting a spectacular facility. However the village was in dire need of greenery and shade.

Once again the members of the Ufone Volunteer Group availed the opportunity to be a part of an eco- friendly project and took part in making the SOS Children village greener. The activity was also delightful for the village children who actively took part in the plantation.

This activity comes in the wake of a successful plantation earlier at the SOS village Lahore. Akbar Khan, Chief Marketing Officer at Ufone distributed Eid gifts amongst the children and shared a special moment of bonding with them stressing upon the importance of taking care of the planet.

The Plant-a-Tree activity was conducted at the village to promote a healthy environment and also provides shade for the children, guardians and teachers. Focusing mainly on educational institutes and hospitals, Ufone has conducted various such activities in the recent past.
