Maib Forest, 2nd Edition: Planting Today for Future Generations

“We plant today for future generations” – is the slogan of the 2nd edition of the maib forest planting event, held in partnership with the nongovernmental organization "Hai Moldova" on November 5, 2022, when the Republic of Moldova marked the National Greening Day.

About 150 employees and their children, volunteers and locals met in the village of Cruzesti, a suburb of the capital, to expand the maib forest planted last year on an area of two hectares, being the first forest in this locality.

In the current year, the forested surface was expanded on the land with an increased risk of degradation and landslides, and 2000 maple and acacia saplings were planted. The choice of species was made according to the recommendations of forestry specialists, considering the degree of soil erosion, adaptability to local conditions and formation of the natural ecosystem.

Iulia Bogusevschi, Head of Corporate Communications at maib:

“The maib forest is one of the soul projects in the bank’s corporate social responsibility portfolio. This project is already gathering for the second year in Cruzesti the friends of the environment - the maib team together with their families, volunteers, and the locals under whose eyes the forest in the locality will continue to grow. I want to thank the maib employees, who are ambassadors of good deeds, for the emotions experienced and the dedication to greening the community. Appreciation also to the partners from "Hai Moldova", for the caring way they grew the seedlings planted and their nice growth, and the locals of Cruzești - for the dream of having a real forest in the locality".

According to the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2022, the forested area of ​​the Republic of Moldova constitutes 11% of the country's territory, while the forested area of ​​Europe is 29%.

Nadejda Cebotari, President of “Hai Moldova” NGO:

"Such a project contributes in the long term to improving the quality of the environment and, respectively, to improve the quality of life of Moldovan citizens. We are delighted with the beautiful example of the maib team, who made such a valuable and sustainable project possible in Cruzești locality. Thank you!"

We remind you that last fall, on an area of ​​2 hectares, the maib forest was planted in the shape of the bank's logo, the initiative being part of the series of actions carried out on the occasion of the bank's brand update.

Acting with the belief that forests are among the few renewable sources that directly influence the quality of the soil and the environment, the ambassadors of good deeds within maib have already started planning for the third edition of planting and expanding forested areas.

 

Maib – we plant today for future generations!
