Sterling Bank of Asia visits Masungi Georeserve for its Environmental Campaign

Sterling Bank of Asia's (SBA) annual CSR Activity, tagged as Kind Heart Gives, turns green this year as they conducted an environmental initiative at Masungi Georeserve in Baras, Rizal.

Masungi Georeserve is an award-winning conservation project dedicated to conserving the Masungi landscape in Baras, Rizal. Joined by 50 SBA employees, the activity allowed them to participate in the reserve’s "Nurture-a-Grove" reforestation campaign.

Sterling Bank of Asia is committed to fulfilling its role in upholding environmental and social responsibility.

"Sterling Bank of Asia takes part in saving the denuded forests around the reserve. It is also one of our ways to strengthen our sustainability efforts and to give back to the environment," said Arlene Siongco, Head of Human Resources Group at Sterling Bank of Asia.

"We'd like to thank Masungi Georeserve for welcoming us. Activities such as these are necessary for the company as it is one of the ways we uphold environmental appreciation and conservation," said Cecilio Paul San Pedro, SBA's President and CEO.

The Masungi Georeserve project has been awarded for protecting the 60-million-year-old limestone formations and more than 400 species of flora and fauna in Baras, Rizal.
