I had the distinct honor of connecting with Oguzhan Tugrul on Facebook pages and wanted to share his notable mission and project.
He initially wrote, “Our project is converting recycled paper into trees with the help of tree seed papers. The mayor wants to give each student in the municipality a small flower pot with tree seed paper (fifty thousand students !! only me and my wife we are making the seed papers).”
50,000 notable, right?!
Now, I just found out that 100,000 Pine Tree seed papers have been distributed to school children in Municipality of Kağıthane Belediyesi!
Congratulations!!! This initiative is to be commended—bringing together and supporting the community while restoring a traditional craft and planting trees. Beautiful.
