From digging in dirt to powering a greener future, we’re turning over a new leaf every day

At AAR Healthcare, our care doesn’t stop at people—it branches out to the planet too. When it comes to environmental conservation, our staff keeps proving one thing: they’re not afraid to get their hands dirty (in the best way possible).

A Big Leafy THANK YOU

To anyone who’s ever joined a tree planting event: thank you.

Whether you dug the hole, held the seedling, fetched water, or were on “official selfie duties,” your presence planted more than trees—it planted hope, health, and cleaner air.

The Root of the Matter

Over the past five years, AAR Healthcare has planted over 200,000 trees across Kenya. That’s not just a groove—it’s a legacy.

With each mature tree able to absorb about 21 kg of CO₂ per year, we’re looking at a potential offset of 4.2 million kilograms (4,200 metric tons) of CO₂ annually. If climate action were a relay, we’d be sprinting ahead with saplings in hand.

Helping the World One Tree at a Time – SDG Style

Our green initiatives directly support the achievement of SDGs, including:

SDG 13: Climate Action – By planting trees and raising awareness, we’re actively reducing our carbon footprint and contributing to climate resilience.

SDG 15: Life on Land – Trees restore ecosystems, protect biodiversity, and improve soil health.

SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being – Clean air, cool shade, and a stronger connection to nature, hence happier, healthier communities.

SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production – From recycling in the office to reducing plastic waste, every action counts.

Let’s be honest: tree planting isn’t always glamorous. There’s mud, bugs, the occasional mystery plant that might be poison ivy, and that one person who insists on “supervising” instead of digging. But you showed up, with grit, colourful gumboots, and green spirit. That’s what makes you the real MVPs – Most Valuable Planters.

The AAR green spirit doesn’t stop when the last seedling is in the ground. Many of you have become eco-champions at work—reducing plastic, reusing office supplies, recycling like pros, and being that brave soul who reminds everyone to turn off the lights.

These everyday actions prove something powerful: planet care is people care. And at AAR, we do both.

So here’s to you, the warriors of wellness, defenders of dirt, and guardians of greenery.

Let’s keep growing, one tree for every 10 patients who visit our OPC’s.

Thank you for making AAR Healthcare a company that’s not only people-first, but planet-forward.
