Al Baraka Bank (Pakistan) Limited celebrated ‘Al Baraka Day’ by organizing an environmental awareness session and a joint plantation drive of 200 trees in collaboration with the Institute of Environmental Studies at the University of Karachi. This initiative is part of a broader, group-wide (Al Baraka Banking Group) commitment to community-focused volunteering activities under the banner of Al Baraka Day, first launched by (Al Baraka Banking Group) in 2022.
The theme for this year’s ‘Al Baraka Day’ is “Life on Land,” a direct alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 15, which focuses on the protection, restoration, and sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems and biodiversity.
This activity also contributes to its flagship initiative “One Tree Per Staff Every Year” by promoting environmental stewardship and sustainability to reduce banks carbon footprint.
This initiative reflects the banks deep-rooted commitment to climate change and its impact. Through this partnership with the University of Karachi, the bank is not only contributing to a greener Pakistan but also engaging the next generation in our collective mission to enable our youth to become the agents of change with the banks shared vision for a sustainable future.
The event brought together Al Baraka Bank employees, university staff, and students in a hands-on effort to create a meaningful, lasting impact on the communities and environment.
