Koushan Gifting and the Environment
During this occasion, some symbolic gifts were presented, representing a simple initiative to preserve the environment and marine life in the seas and oceans. The souvenirs are made from recycled plastic collected from the oceans. A portion of the product’s value goes towards supporting efforts to clean the seas and oceans and restore the ecological balance of marine life in the most affected areas. We believe that small initiatives can save our planet, allowing humanity to enjoy a beautiful environment created by the Almighty. Let us work together to preserve our planet.
