Legian, 11 October 2024 – To commemorate its 10th anniversary, Neo+ Kuta Legian held a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) event focused on environmental preservation by organizing a "Baby Turtle Release" at Turtle Conservation Kuta Beach. This event aims to support the conservation efforts for endangered sea turtles and contribute to the protection of Bali's marine ecosystem.
The release of baby turtles, or hatchlings, symbolizes hope and a sustainable future for the ocean. The event was attended by hotel staff, invited guests, local community members, and several environmental partners who participated in this meaningful initiative.
Opening Remarks and Vision for the Future "Celebrating our 10th anniversary in Bali is not just about reflecting on our journey but also about making a positive impact on the environment and the local community," said Dedi Indra, as Chairman of the Neo+ Kuta Legian 10th Anniversary Committee. "Through this turtle release, we aim to inspire our guests and the public to take more responsibility in protecting the ocean, particularly the sea turtles, which are a vital part of our ecosystem."
Collaboration with the Turtle Conservation Center For this event, Neo+ Kuta Legian partnered with the Turtle Conservation Center, a dedicated organization focused on rescuing and rehabilitating sea turtles. Before the turtle release, participants were given an informative session on the importance of protecting sea turtles and how human activities, including plastic pollution, endanger their lives. This turtle release was designed not only to provide an unforgettable experience but also to raise awareness about the significance of marine conservation.
Education and Long-Term Commitment In addition to the turtle release, the CSR event featured educational sessions highlighting the importance of beach cleanliness and reducing single-use plastics. Participants were encouraged to join workshops promoting eco-friendly products and waste management practices. Neo+ Kuta Legian is committed to actively supporting environmental conservation initiatives as part of its long-term corporate responsibility strategy.
Fundraising for Conservation Efforts As part of the event, Neo+ Kuta Legian conducted a fundraising drive, with proceeds going directly to the Turtle Conservation Center to support their future rehabilitation and turtle release programs. The hotel also plans to continue its collaboration with the conservation center for future environmental activities.
