12/27/2017

As a New Year gift for its partners PASHA Bank will plant 2018 trees joining in the “Aghadgine” campaign that aims to recover the burnt territory of Borjomi forest. 

“In 2017 PASHA Bank initiated and participated in several environmental-friendly projects. Last year we congratulated our partners on New Year by planting 2017 Georgian Pine Trees in damaged territory near Borjomi. As the feedback we received was uniformly positive that has encouraged us to stay the course, so this year we’ve decided to again join “Aghadgine” campaign and to fund planting of 2018 trees. We truly hope that our partners will enjoy this gift.” - said Anano Korkia, Head of PR and Marketing Department at PASHA Bank.
