Belle Corp. is deepening its long-running commitment to sustainability with a fresh tree-planting drive under its One Tree at a Time program in Tagaytay Highlands.
The initiative, joined by volunteers from Belle and Pacific Online Systems Corp., supports the goal of planting one million trees by 2044, a vision set by founder and gaming tycoon Willy N. Ocier.
Since 1994, the Belle Group has already planted around 500,000 trees across its Highlands, Midlands, and Greenlands estates, transforming the area into a thriving green corridor.
The latest tree-planting activity, held in partnership with Greenmist Property Management Corp., reaffirms Belle’s push to balance development with environmental preservation.
Tagaytay Highlands is home to sustainable communities like The Grove at Plantation Hills, which promotes eco-farming and a farm-to-table lifestyle—a living example of how business growth and nature can thrive side by side.
