The tree-planting event brought together NCBA Bank leaders, students, teachers, government officials, and community members, underscoring the importance of collaborative efforts in promoting sustainability.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Charles Mbatia, Head of Strategy and Sustainability at NCBA Bank Tanzania, said, “At NCBA Bank, we believe sustainability is not just a responsibility but a legacy we must leave for future generations. By planting these 2,000 trees here in Mwanza, we are taking concrete steps toward restoring the environment, supporting biodiversity, and building healthier communities. This initiative is a testament to the power of partnership and shared commitment.”
The event was graced by the Regional Commissioner of Mwanza, Mr. Mtanda who commended NCBA Bank for its environmental leadership. “This initiative is a clear demonstration of how organizations like NCBA Bank can make a meaningful impact by partnering with communities to safeguard our environment. Planting trees is an investment in the future of Mwanza and Tanzania as a whole,” said Mr. Mtanda.
This activity follows NCBA’s recent tree-planting efforts in Zanzibar, where 1,000 trees were planted to support coastal conservation, and in Arusha, where another 1,000 trees enhanced green spaces at Arusha City Hospital. Most recently, NCBA partnered with Jangwani Girls Secondary School in Dar es Salaam to plant 1,000 trees, improving the school’s learning environment while raising environmental awareness among students.
In addition to the tree planting, NCBA Bank engaged students and community members in an awareness session on the importance of trees in combating climate change, preserving biodiversity, and creating sustainable environments.
NCBA Bank Tanzania remains dedicated to integrating sustainability into its operations and community programs. By fostering partnerships and empowering communities, NCBA continues to lead the way in corporate responsibility, leaving a lasting legacy for Tanzania’s environment and future generations.
