Great Properties joins green network of EEG

Emirates Business 24/7
 
 
Emirates Business 24-7, 06 July 2009

Great Properties, a UAE-based real estate agency, has officially become a member of Emirates Environmental Group's (EEG) Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Network.

"Great Properties has a firm commitment to support environmental awareness initiatives as well as projects across the UAE and the region. We are living in a critical time for the environment and we need to spread the message to ensure that planet earth is habitable for future generations," said Mohamed Al Zarah, Vice-President of Great Properties.

Zarah said any environmental initiative has a bigger and noticeable effect in the long run. He re-affirmed Great Properties' long-term partnership with EEG and pledged to support future campaigns as an official member of the CSR network. Great Properties already has several environmental initiatives in place including the distribution of re-usable 'Great Use Re Use' shopping bags and recyclable diaries.

In the past first few years the CSR Network's focus was to encourage members to take an active part in shaping and developing the network, documenting best practices, creating tools and resources, and organising workshops and training sessions. This year, the network will focus on enabling companies to fully maximise their potential by embedding CSR within their business strategies to further drive the movement in the UAE.

Established in 2004, the EEG's CSR Network works closely with the government and corporate sectors to promote sustainable development in the UAE.
