This mega plantation drive is a crucial step towards combating the rising temperatures and environmental degradation in our beloved city. By engaging the entire Nashik community, we aim to create a greener, healthier, and more sustainable future for generations to come. I urge everyone to join us in this mass movement and take an active role in regreening Nashik. Together, we can make a significant impact and ensure a better environment for all, “said Mr. Piyush Somani – Founder, ESDS Software Solution Limited.

Over 750+ volunteers participated in a well-organized campaign, demonstrating a collective solid commitment to environmental conservation. This impressive turnout included employees of ESDS Software Solution, all the members of the United We Stand Foundation, NCC cadets, 20 NGOs, government officials, and various other individuals from Nashik City. The diverse group came together with a shared goal of making a positive impact on the environment. Their collaborative efforts exemplified the power of community engagement in promoting sustainability and set a commendable example for future initiatives. The initial stage of this plantation drive received colossal success, and the subsequent drive will be organized in August. 

Commenting on this occasion, Mrs. Komal Somani, CHRO, ESDS Software Solution Limited, stated?"Once, when I was having a conversation with my son Priyansh, I asked him, ‘What gift would you want from us when we grow old?’ his reply amazed me; he said, 'The only thing I want from you or your generation is a world where we can breathe, live, and be happy.' Priyansh's words remind us that we all have a significant role to play in protecting our environment. Let’s go beyond awareness and take actions to provide a sustainable future for generation to come. The onus of parallelly developing green covers across geographies lies not only with an individual or the government but also with responsible corporates like ESDS. I am happy to be a part of such an initiative where the employees have come together as a family and contributed to the core principles of sustainability by pledging to plant 1B+ tress for the larger good of the community and coming generations.” 

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Rajendra Sinha, Vice Chancellor Sandip University, “I am honoured to be here and proud to have contributed our property to this wonderful initiative by United We Stand Foundation and ESDS Software Solution Ltd. We are committed to making our surroundings beautiful and green and hope to receive ongoing support from ESDS for these efforts in the future.” 

Commenting on the occasion, Mr. Sagar Matale, Founder and President of United We Stand Foundation, expressed heartfelt gratitude towards all participants: "I extend my sincere thanks to everyone who joined us today, including the dedicated NCC cadets, representatives from all NGOs, government officials, and the enthusiastic individuals from Nashik city. Your presence and active involvement have made this tree plantation drive successful."

He continued, "As the Founder of United We Stand Foundation, it fills me with immense pride to witness such collective efforts towards securing a sustainable future for generations to come. Our foundation will always remain committed to nurturing green spaces and fostering environmental consciousness, United We Stand Foundation will always be in the forefront for social activities that will create an impact for the betterment of the society.
