Sustainability

At LOLC Group, we strive to maximise environmental benefits through green operations and processes in line with our triple bottom line focus. Under the Group’s reforestation programme, we have set out an action plan that has laid out the number of trees to be planted in schools located island wide that are in close proximity to our branch network. Whilst the overall goal of this project is to create a greener Sri Lanka, much focus is also given to maintaining the trees and ensuring that the habit of tree planting is inculcated amongst the younger generation.

Each branch office and its staff members are entrusted to work closely with the administrators and the students of the selected schools to monitor and record the growth of the plants. The branches also frequently organises orientation sessions with the schools in order to create awareness on the importance of planting and nurturing trees to mitigate the effects of climate change. The LOLC Green Schools Tree Planting Programme is led by a project committee for every school comprising of the school Principal, Teacher in charge, Student coordinator and the LOLC Finance or CLC Branch coordinator.
