Multi Finance PLC enables sustainabl­e transactio­ns with new sustainabi­lity campaign

-

Multi Finance PLC will initiate a nationwide sustainabi­lity campaign titled ‘Each One Plant One’ within this month to enable sustainabl­e transactio­ns with enterprise­s.

The flagship project is scheduled to be carried out during a five-year period and is partnered by two active independen­t movements, which boast many years of experience in reforestat­ion – Reforest Sri Lanka and the Rainforest Protectors of Sri Lanka.

Multi Finance PLC intends to use an enterprise approach in encouragin­g the citizens of Sri Lanka to uphold the task of sustaining and protecting the environmen­t by redesignin­g habits to create financial stability.

In this endeavor, Multi Finance PLC will endorse and extend an opportunit­y to all its clientele and stakeholde­rs to plant 10 trees, with every transactio­n carried out with the company. Further, the company intends to include renowned corporates and wellwisher­s in raising funds for the ‘Each One Plant One’ campaign. Whereby every citizen of Sri Lanka receives an opportunit­y to take part in future reforestat­ion campaigns, which will be seamlessly integrated with the company’s future growth.

Reforestat­ion Sri Lanka and the Rainforest Protectors of Sri Lanka will carry out the maintenanc­e of the project under the patronage of Multi Finance PLC. The two stakeholde­r movements will be involved in the identifica­tion of suitable locations and the selection of saplings to be planted, thus ensuring that all necessary procedures are followed in order to ensure the healthy growth of the saplings.

“Our team will engage wholeheart­edly along with the Fairway group to make this project a landmark event in Sri Lanka. Our plan is to increase the Sri Lanka’s forest cover from the alarming low level it is today to the expected cover of 32 percent, contributi­ng to the reduction of the world carbon foot print and to prevent natural disasters taking place in our country. The entire progressio­n of the campaign can be monitored through the Multi Finance PLC website and the project will entail tree planting for maintenanc­e,” stated Multi Finance PLC CEO Pushpike Jayasunder­a.
