On the 18th of June 2023, Global Refugee Initiatives participated in the highly anticipated Run 4 Climate event, an initiative organised by our Partners Tree Adoption Uganda (TAU) aimed at raising funds for tree planting and environmental conservation.
One of the highlights of our participation was the involvement of children from our esteemed Environmental Kids Club program. These young environmental enthusiasts showed their dedication and passion for a greener future by participating in the children’s 4km race. Their energy and enthusiasm were truly inspiring, serving as a reminder that the future lies in the hands of our young generation.
