As part of its commitment to environmental sustainability, De La Salle Medical and Health Sciences Institute (DLSMHSI) planted over 1,400 medicinal and vegetable seedlings during the “Tanim at Ani-Mo” tree-growing activity. The seedlings were planted in a 100 sqm area behind the Administrative and Finance Center and a 300 sqm lot in the DLSMHSI extension area.

The activity is part of NSTP 101 Module 6: Integrating Laudato Si’ in Lasallian Climate Change Adaptation and Sustainable Environment Stewardship, supporting global efforts to reduce greenhouse gases and promote ecosystem restoration.

Led by the Lasallian Formation and Social Action (LFSA) and the National Service Training Program (NSTP) Unit under the Center for Community Development and Service-Learning (CCDSL), the initiative brought together faculty, staff, and students in a unified push for a greener future.
