100 trees planted and dedicated at Zila Parishad School, India!

Mrs. Chhaya Taralekar shares her story with us.

Mrs. Taralekar tells us that the Rotary Club Sunrise and NGO Gawali Pratisthan joined forces to plant 100 trees at the Zila Parishad School in Mumbai, India.

The 100 trees were carefully selected considering the environment. Amongst the tree types planted, were moringa, guava, mango, and areca palm trees.

“These trees will be watered with proper borewell water and will be cared for by the school children” Mrs. Chhaya Taralekar tells us.

Once these trees are big enough, they will also contribute to the midday meals of the school children.

About the amazing team behind this project, Mrs. Chhaya Taralekar says, “We are a group of nature lovers who love to plant, grow and save trees!”
