DENR hails Million Trees Foundation

AS THE Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) trains its sights on the protection, preservation and management of the environment, it commends its partners from the private sector, academe, civil society, and other national government agencies for their contributions to the government’s various environmental programs and projects.

At the recently concluded Stakeholders and Partners Forum with the theme “Environmental Partnership for Sustainable Future” held at the Park Inn by Radisson in Quezon City, these program and project partners were awarded plaques of recognition “for their invaluable support to the programs, projects and activities of the DENR National Capital Region.”

Among those recognized was the Million Trees Foundation, Inc. (MTFI), a non-stock, non-profit organization incorporated on March 16, 2021. Its primary objective is to ensure the sustainability of the Annual Million Trees Challenge (AMTC), a watershed rehabilitation program of the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS). MTFI is the non-government partner organization of MWSS in the implementation of the AMTC.
