Greening Taraba

🌿 Greening Taraba

Launching September 21, 2025 · International Day of Peace

Greening Taraba Project

The Crisis: Taraba State, once a lush sanctuary, is facing an environmental emergency. Uncontrolled logging and unsustainable farming have led to:

  • Extreme heat and declining rainfall
  • Reduced crop yields and food insecurity
  • Drying rivers and vanishing water sources
  • Loss of biodiversity

But hope is growing. On the International Day of Peace, community organizer Dofa Francis will launch the Greening Taraba Project — a bold initiative to plant 500 trees across schools, churches, mosques, and neighborhoods. 🌱

This is more than reforestation. It is a movement to empower children and youth as guardians of the environment.

💬 What We're Doing

  • Tree planting in schools and faith centers
  • Climate education and youth engagement
  • Community gardening and agro-ecological training
  • Interfaith collaboration and policy advocacy

📍 Hosted by: The Green Hub
📅 Date: September 21, 2025
📍 Venue: Zoom

🌍 Why It Matters

Deforestation in Northern Nigeria accelerates desertification. Taraba — the green heart of the region — must be restored. With your help, we can re-green the land and build a peaceful, sustainable future.

🌟 Thank You

Your support means the world to us.
