"Our mandate in banking extends far beyond providing financial services. It is deeply rooted in our commitment to sustainable development, protecting nature and securing resilient community livelihoods." - Emmanuel Otuko, Manager Sustainability, Centenary Bank.
At the official launch of the Radio Maria Uganda Tree Planting Campaign to Grow 1 million trees, Our Manager Sustainability, Mr. Emmanuel Otuko, alongside Ms Chipo Natege, Sabakristu Mapeera Chapel, delivered a powerful message of collective action.
Radio Maria’s target of nurturing 1 million trees is an ambitious task that no single institution can achieve alone. To support this vital environmental milestone, Centenary Bank has contributed UGX 15,000,000!
This partnership perfectly aligns with our flagship
#CenteGreenProgramme, through which we are committed to planting 100,000 trees annually for 5 years. This nationwide green drive is powered in collaboration with the Good Forest Foundation and spans across all 12 Catholic Dioceses in Uganda.
While congratulating Radio Maria on their 30-year milestone, Emmanuel shared a vision of returning in another 30 years to witness the fully grown, well-nurtured forests we are planting today God willing.
He urged individuals, civil society organizations, and government bodies including the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA), who were present at the launch to join hands in this campaign. Together, let's protect our common home!
