Our Green Tomorrow is a long-term programme launched by GEOTECHMIN GROUP  in 2011 with the purpose of improving urban environment and enhancing biodiversity in the regions where the Group’s companies do business. It is implemented with corporate funds and volunteer work, as well as the active support and participation of local communities.

In the period 2011 – 2014, Our Green Tomorrow initiative was undertaken by Geotechmin OOD and Ellatzite-Med AD in the municipalities of Srednogorie, Etropole and Samokov. Within the programme, 30 decares of municipal woodlands and forests were planted, and various urban greenspaces - parks and gardens were beautifully landscaped.

In 2020, the year of the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak when the local authorities faced a great number of difficulties, the management team of GEOTECHMIN GROUP decided to continue the implementation of Our Green Tomorrow which is currently part of a larger programme in support of socially beneficial activities - Bulgarian Virtues Charity Programme. Two other companies from GEOTECHMIN GROUP - Geostroy AD and Geotrading AD joined the initiative of Geotechmin OOD and Ellatzite-Med AD to improve natural environments by planting a rich diversity of trees, shrubs and flowers.

The four companies provide funding to the municipalities of Etropole, Mirkovo, Pirdop, Zlatitsa, Chavdar, Chelopech and Koprivshtitsa to purchase the most desirable tree species suited for their local environments. To show their commitment to promoting biodiversity, representatives of the companies’ management teams and employees join together as volunteers in the tree planting initiative. Local authorities also contribute to the cause by giving their time and voluntary work - mayors, chairmen of municipal councils and representatives of local administrations, as well as teachers, students and even children from kindergartens.

While in the period 2011-2014 most of the tree planting activities were done on forest terrains, this time the initiative is focused on enhancing biodiversity in urban environments. Specialists from the said municipalities chose the areas and types of vegetation to be planted according to their needs. As a result of Our Green Tomorrow programme, in 2020 more than 1,100 trees and shrubs were planted - Japanese cherries, various species of acacia, catalpas, lime trees, Norway maples, magnolias, tree roses, rose bushes, as well as hundreds of flowers in seven municipalities in the region where Ellatzite-Med AD operates.
