As nature is a part of human development and a major concern of the society, we at Bagong Henerasyon also play a big role in taking care of the environment. As we help develop better education and healthy society, we also take part in finding ways to keep our world at its tip-top shape. Projects that will keep our surroundings clean, resources that will stay abundant for the next generation, keeping our fellow countrymen informed and thus, reminded that each of one of us is important in maintaining our natural resources and Mother Earth safe and sustained.
BERDENG HAMON: Sinop Bulasi
The “Ang Hamon ng Bagong Henerasyon: Halina’t mag Bulasi” project is a segregation and recycling project for all primary and secondary schools in District 1, Quezon City. The project aims to impact the values of environmental stewardship among the youth by initiating a school-based segregation and recycling program.
The project is open to students, faculty and so with other members of the school community wherein they will be earning points for every kilo and/or piece of recyclables that will be brought to school. These recyclable are brought by the partner junkshops and each participant will be given their respective passbooks which contain their earned points. The participants may use their earned points in exchange of school supplies, grocery items, personal hygiene stuff, sporting goods, gadgets etc. which may be found in the BH cart.
A special incentive (allowance for ten (10) months; June to March of the following school year) will be given to one (1) student per school who have earned the highest points (not lower than 1500 pts.)
The AHBH:HB project will eventually cross the borders of District 1, QC by school year 2011-2012.

Tree Planting
The Bagong Henerasyon has been supporting the Save the La Mesa Watershed Program of ABS-CBN Foundation since 2007. Bagong Henerasyon encouraged and partnered with several organizations such as the rotary Club of South Triangle and the Cradle of Joy Learning center in order to raise funds and make contributions in saving the water source o Metro Manila and the nearby provinces.
Currently, the Bagong Henerasyon is establishing partnerships and joining talks and activities, this time in saving the PASIG RIVER. This is aside from the yearly tree planting activities undertaken by the Bagong Henerasyon, its officers, volunteers and members.

Water Projects
The Bagong Henerasyon established water tanks and drinking fountains in several schools in Quezon City. This is to augment the need of the students and faculty members for clean and potable water supply in their respective schools.
Bagong Henerasyon also provided communities with safe drinking water in partnership with water concessionaire, MAYNILAD as well as establishing deep wells in parts of Quezon City where clean drinking water is not yet available.
