Corporate social responsibility

At Grupo NW SAS , under the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility , we decided to create the Red de Arboles Foundation in 2015 , which seeks to support the conservation of ecosystems and contribute to reducing the environmental impact that is generated daily. Since then, we committed to donating a percentage to the Foundation for each product sold.

For several years the Foundation has aimed to plant trees in areas affected by human activities and unpredictable natural disasters. Having this goal, it has been possible to plant more than 22,000 native trees in different parts of the country such as Bogotá, Bucaramanga, Cali, Cota, Medellín, Mosquera and Tenjo.

The effort has been rewarded, since the Foundation received 2 nominations in the 2018 Portafolio Awards within the categories "Environmental Protection" and "Corporate Social Responsibility" . This news filled us with great satisfaction and joy, since it is gratifying to know that all the commitment we have had with the environment is beginning to be recognized in Colombia. All this leads us to want to continue with more enthusiasm, to continue providing the world and society with a place full of life, full of trees and clean air to breathe.

At Grupo NW SAS we are committed to the environment and our goal is to preserve it. For this reason, we will continuously support the Foundation in its sustainability and constant growth, in order to afforest and reforest the largest number of affected areas in Colombia.

Red de Árboles nominated in the 2022 Portfolio Awards

The Fundación Red de Árboles was nominated for the 2022 Portfolio Awards. This award counted the participation of more than 700 projects registered throughout the national territory and was held at Club El Nogal, in the city of Bogotá.

Every year, Portafolio Magazine rewards Colombian organizations that stand out at the national level, for their social, environmental and economic impact. These awards seek to encourage work beyond economic profit and highlight the organizations that are part of the paradigm shift of what it means to be a company. For this, an award ceremony is held, which, this year, was held at Club El Nogal, in Bogotá. Here the nominees of the different categories were presented, such as: Innovation, Digital Transformation, Corporate Social Responsibility or Best Business Leader.

In our case, we present ourselves in the Environmental Protection category, with our project: Planting with Fundación Red de Árboles, which consists of all the plantings that have been carried out in the municipality of Sibaté - Cundinamarca, as voluntary environmental compensation, to all companies that need to offset their environmental impact, reforesting with native trees.
