IMDAAD CELEBRATES<br />

“ENVIROCARE MONTH”<br />

COMPANY TO AWARD EXCITING PRIZES TO<br />

EMPLOYEES WHO TURN IN LARGEST QUANTITIES<br />

OF RECYCLABLES<br />

As part of its continuing commitment<br />

to saving and preserving the<br />

environment, Imdaad celebrated its<br />

‘Enviro Care Month’ with a recycling<br />

collection campaign for its employees.<br />

For the whole month of October,<br />

Imdaad put up a recycling station that<br />

was manned by a designated recycling<br />

collection team to collect recyclable<br />

items from participating employees.<br />

Items considered for recycling include<br />

paper, cardboard, newspapers, old<br />

directories and magazines; plastic<br />

bottles and bags; aluminum and tin<br />

cans; glass bottles; electronic waste<br />

like computers, phones, scanners,<br />

toners, etc. and scrap metals.<br />

The activity is aimed at instilling<br />

an increased awareness on how<br />

certain items can be recycled<br />

and put to better use, which at<br />

the same time, leaves less of an<br />

impact or carbon footprint on the<br />

environment. During the run of<br />

the campaign, the recycling stands<br />

and the corresponding teams<br />

will be stationed from 7:00 AM<br />

to 8:00 AM daily to receive the<br />

recyclable items. The collection<br />

team will weigh the received<br />

items and provide a receipt for the<br />

participating employee. At the end<br />

of October, the recycled quantities<br />

will be summarized and employees<br />

with the largest amount of items<br />

donated will receive exciting<br />

prizes. Winners will be based on<br />

recyclable items collected from<br />

their respective homes, however, a<br />

special set of consolation prizes will<br />

also go to the employee with the<br />

highest quantity of recycled items<br />

collected from Imdaad offices.<br />

Jamal Abdullah Lootah, CEO,<br />

Imdaad, said, “We are proud to<br />

announce the start of our ‘Enviro<br />

Care Month’ celebrations. For the<br />

whole month of October, we are<br />

aiming to increase more awareness<br />

on the significant role that recycling<br />

plays in saving and preserving<br />

the environment by making our<br />

employees participate in a recycling<br />

drive where they will be rewarded<br />

for the amount of recycled items<br />

they bring in to our designated<br />

recycling stands. Activities like<br />

these helps demonstrate our<br />

support and commitment towards<br />

the global efforts to save the earth<br />

and preserve its natural resources.<br />

We are confident that this recycling<br />

activity will inspire other companies<br />

to follow suit and aim to spread<br />

the message of recycling.”<br />
