Hoteli za Ovolo hupanda mti mmoja kwa kila uhifadhi

Hoteli za Ovolo zilitangaza kuzindua mpango wake endelevu wa "Fanya Wema, Ujisikie Vizuri", ikijumuisha ahadi ya "Green Perk" ya kupanda mti, kwa kushirikiana na Miradi ya Upandaji Misitu ya Eden, kwa kila uhifadhi wa moja kwa moja kwenye hoteli zake.

"Fanya Wema, Jisikie Wema" inafuata ahadi ya wala mboga mboga ya Ovolo "Plant'd" na inaangazia mambo muhimu yafuatayo katika nguzo kuu mbili za "Sayari" na "Watu":

"Ahadi zetu zinakwenda zaidi ya viashirio vya mazingira na ni pamoja na masuala kama vile kusherehekea tofauti na ushirikishwaji, kusaidia watoto na shule, kutafuta majumbani na kujenga hoteli ambazo zitarudisha jamii zao kwa njia ya maana," alisema Dave Baswal, Afisa Mkuu Mtendaji wa Kundi la Ovolo. "Tunataka kufanya maamuzi bora zaidi kwa ajili yetu na sayari na kuchukua sehemu yetu katika kuhakikisha maisha bora ya baadaye kwa wote."

Wakati wowote wageni wanapoweka nafasi moja kwa moja na Ovolo, watapokea ujumbe baada ya kukaa kwao na maelezo ya mahali ambapo mti wao umepandwa na athari sawia kwa mazingira. Katika hali ya uwazi kwa wageni wake, wafanyikazi na wawekezaji, na katika juhudi za kila mara za kuboresha stakabadhi zake za uendelevu, Ovolo pia amejitolea kutoa ripoti ya uendelevu ya kila mwaka, iliyothibitishwa na mkaguzi wa tatu.

“Uwazi na uwiano na mipango na malengo ya maendeleo endelevu ni muhimu kwetu; hatutaki tu kuzungumza mazungumzo, lakini tunataka kuwajibika ili kutembea pia,” Dave Baswal alihitimisha.
