Mama Earth Foundation Recognizes the Rotary Club of Manila’s 1,297 Mangrove Trees Donation Planted in Barangay Astorga Sta. Cruz, Davao del Sur

Over the last 15 years, I have done many Rotary projects together with our partner Mama Earth (https://mama-earth.info/). Mama Earth is planting endemic trees and mangroves in the Davao region. They have planted over 2 million mangroves in the Mati region in the last two years.

I made a small yearly donation in the last years of 23,500 pesos in the name of RCM. This equates to almost 1,300 mangroves.
