Ms. Glory Shirley Ogbuegbu, the Executive Director of Glow Initiative For Economic Empowerment made a powerful remark to express her excitement as her Team in the City of Port Harcourt carried out the campaign on Saving Biodiversity in Rivers State, led by the Team Lead Mr. Smith Nwokocha.

It was a huge success. In the ED’s remark she said: “This made me so happy. For a city dealing daily with soot our team made a real difference in the city of porthacourt last week. Kudos to the Glow Initiative for Economic Empowerment and team in Porthacourt led by Smith Nwokocha for the successful implementation of the Save Biodiversity project.

1) We cleaned up:
-plastic blocked drainages
-markets
-dirty streets
The goal is to raise awareness on the dangers to local biodiversity within the cities. We must give nature a chance to thrive.

2) We planted trees in:
-secondary schools
-community common areas!
3) Educated 1000 students from 3 secondary schools (Government Comprehensive Secondary School, Borikiri, Port Harcourt, Archdeacon Brown Educational Centre-ABEC Group of Schools, Woji, Port Harcourt, and Woodville School, Stadium Road, Port Harcourt, Rivers State) on the importance of biodiversity protection and the role planting trees!



How cool is that?
The Save Biodiversity in Porthacourt Project is the brainchild of #Glow #Initiative and supported by Access Bank PLC.
Plant a tree in your backyard today and remember to reuse and recycle your plastic wastes.#
