Nedbank Zimbabwe teamed up with Dzikwa Trust to stick over 100 trees in the ground around Dzivaresekwa for the country's annual tree-planting celebration. Dzikwa works with orphaned and at-risk kids by helping them with school stuff, food, health care, and cultural programs, and the bank dropped some cash to cover education support, environmental care after planting, biodiversity efforts with different tree varieties, and arts programming. Joel Gombera from Nedbank's marketing team said the whole thing lines up with UN development goals around quality education, climate action, and protecting life on land.
Seppo Ainamo from Dzikwa said trees matter because they provide oxygen, food, shade, and medicine for the vulnerable children they work with in the community. The government picked the sausage tree as this year's featured species and wants people to plant fruit trees alongside native ones to boost nutrition across households.
