Summary: Go Green is seeking the support and involvement of the international community. This is why for a minimum purchase made by buyers from a FAME Foundation member, the member will donate 100 trees to the project in the name of the buyer.
Go Green is FAME Foundation’s way of contributing to a sustainable environment and promoting corporate social responsibility in the industry.
An initiative of Cebu FAME Foundation, Go Green has a 3-fold objective: RECYCLE natural components to ensure continuing natural sources; REPLENISH what is used to use what has been replenished; REVITALIZE nature and breathe new life to the communities.
Reasons for choosing this project: The Philippines is positioned to be Asia’s prime destination for green jewelry. This distinction is reliant on the abundance of the Philippine ecosystem and the consequent availability of raw materials. Go Green Philippines ensures the sustainability of these resources and at the same time promotes social responsibility for its members. Philippine grassroots communities are assured of a sustainable livelihood.
