NO. OF VOLUNTEERS = 5 TRASH COLLECTED = 45 KG As we all move closer to welcome the year 2023, some of our volunteers were kind enough to take our environment to the party. These volunteers happen to be in Jaipur. They conducted a cleanup drive to give our 2022 a fitting conclusion. A reminder that our environment should always have the highest consideration. Please stop littering, more so at tourist places, help preserve the charm of the place! And conduct regular cleanups to help alleviate a place off the garbage, give the garbage its right disposal.

Yet another photo op... We've been doing photo ops like this for years now. This recent one was conducted in Sainik Farm near Saket. Benefits of such a photo op: We channelized some 45+ kgs of littered garbage into formal waste management system By doing so we helped alleviate the local soil We also prevented the place from becoming a breeding ground of disease carrying vectors The photo op also helped in improving the local aesthetics Such a photo op would inspire people to join our mission or maybe they'll do such photo ops themselves... Either way, it's a win for us! Let's do many more of such photo ops! Yes, the sarcasm is intended... Haha!

NO. OF VOLUNTEERS = 12 TRASH COLLECTED = 25 KG A cleanup in DLF Phase 1! Wait. Does that place even require one? Apparently, no! But an hour of manual work and we had 25 kgs of waste collected in our bags demanding the right disposal mechanism. The side track of the main road next to Silver Oaks Society in Gurgaon is prone to open dumping of plastic waste, mostly of the gutkha and pan masala packets, and disposable glasses. Unfortunately, they even escape the landfills or recycling chain. And sadly, they get mixed with the local soil. Soil is the mother of all mothers. Soil is what gives life to the flora. It’s a different avatar of our mother nature. So, we gathered this mother’s day to do our bit towards our super mother. Our volunteers together with Lakshya Foundation collected plastic waste from the stretch and handed it over to FrontMan Waste Handling for its proper disposal. Let’s take responsibility for our actions and prevent our Mother Earth from the burden of the waste we’re ...

NO. OF VOLUNTEERS = 30 TRASH COLLECTED = 80 KG Earth Day is a reminder that we all need to take care of this big rock that we call home. One of the ways we can take care of our home is by cleaning it up on a regular basis. We gathered on the morning of 23-Apr-2022 to cleanup the area outside Delhi Cantonment Metro Station. This whole patch is a victim of littering. We collected around 80 kgs of waste comprising mostly of disposable plastic glasses and plates, and empty packets of gutkha, pan masala, chips etc. We then delivered the waste to a waste transfer station for its proper processing. Let's not limit to environmental commemorative days to do our bit for our environment. Let's make that a lifestyle. Make every day Earth Day!
