Dear Patrons,
We are pleased to share a brief report on the tree planting activity conducted on Saturday on our hillside land. This initiative brought together strong community participation, reflecting a shared commitment to environmental conservation and sustainable land management.
Date: Saturday, May 2, 2026
Location: Buyoga, Rwanda (72HH+PCP)
A total of 55 participants took part in the activity, including 30 children and 25 adults, demonstrating strong intergenerational commitment to environmental protection and a greener future.
The planting exercise began at 5:00 AM and ended at 6:00 PM. The work was carried out on steep and mountainous terrain, requiring significant physical effort, coordination, and teamwork among all participants.
See attached photo.
During the exercise, approximately 4,200 trees were successfully planted. This achievement will contribute significantly to soil conservation, erosion control, and long-term environmental sustainability in the area.
Some delays were experienced due to transport challenges, as the site is located in a hilly area with no road access. All movement of participants and materials was done on foot, which slowed the process but did not prevent successful completion of the activity.
In conclusion, the tree planting activity was successfully completed despite logistical challenges. The dedication and teamwork demonstrated by all participants reflect the strong spirit of community service promoted by RWAYDAVO.
A more detailed report on monitoring, survival rates, and the next tree planting activities will be shared in due course.
Thank you for your continued support.
RWAYDAVO Team
