Brother Philippines and PBSP team up to save the Marikina Watershed

Good job, Brother Philippines! Together with the Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP), the printer manufacturer recently organized a tree planting activity to save the Marikina Watershed.

Brother Tree Planting

Volunteers from both organizations planted a total of 575 seedlings in Sitio Binayoyo, Barangay Calawis in Antipolo City, as part of Brother Philippines’ Marikina Watershed Project. The project, which started in 2010, aims to bring back the watershed’s capacity to hold water to prevent floods in Metro Manila and other low-lying areas. A total of 5,000 seedlings were planted in the area since the project started.

After the tree planting, Brother Philippines and PBSP led the turn-over of farming equipment which included a shredder, mixer and water pump to the community. These equipment will help them grow the fruit-bearing seedlings that were planted in their area.

This reforestation project is in line with the Brother Group’s commitment to contribute to the betterment of the environment.
