YEREVAN, December 5. /ARKA/. Difficulties on the road become hardly noticeable when you are in the company of team members. Aсba Bank employees, supporting each other and hand in hand, climbed to the heights of Jrashen village in Lori province to plant trees, the bank’s press service reported.
In Jrashen, the Acba Bank team planted wild apple and pine trees with the aim to improve the environment and enlarge forest cover.
It is the work to restore forests, create a connection with nature and preserve biodiversity that brought together My Forest Armenia organization and Acba Bank.
My Forest Armenia, a nursery established to restore forests, grows 15 tree species, including oak, maple, pine, birch, wild apple and pear.

“We plant wild apple, pine trees. Forests are the lungs of the Earth, the more forests and green spaces we have, the healthier our atmosphere is,” said Marianne Hovhannisyan, leader of Acba Bank’s Retail Product Management Team.
