This long-standing partnership between AccorHotels and Trees for Survival connects hotels and schools in local communities (in our case, Queenstown Primary School) and hotels. We provide the school with mostly native seedlings and a growing unit for the children to learn the basics of horticulture and the importance of restoring natural habitats. Once the seedlings are mature enough, hotel staff and students jointly have a planting day in a location identified as needing regeneration. Just recently, we learned the apricot trees donated and grown at the school as part of this programme harvested enough apricots to make jam which was then sold at the school fair to raise money for the school.
