The Rotary Club of Karen understands that it is not enough to plant trees, growing the trees is the biggest challenge. It is for this reason that the club signed an MOU with NRFA and KFS to ensure that the trees planted will be well maintained and nurtured addressing the sustainability issue. A team from the club is working closely with the two organizations and updates the club on a monthly basis on how our trees are faring. Inspired by the late environmentalist extraordinaire Wangari Maathai; “until you dig a hole, plant a tree, water it and make it survive, you haven’t done a thing. You are just talking.” Rotary Club of Karen is not just talking; We have planted 2,000 trees since October and are set to plant another 1,000 trees in 2021!
