| The Voice of Earthlings |
The first
chapter of social science states, "Earth is our home". This home has an incredible story, of which you and I are part. Listen
to us, please.
Who are we.
We Speak
For Earth, a
non-profit organization has been around the corner for about four years.
Initially, established with the name YEAP!! (Youth Empowerment by
Active Participation), we have worked and struggled hard for the betterment of our
society in many small ways possible.
What do we do.
We are living in the 21st
century. A time when we are getting broken images of the world surrounding us.
What is happening? Why is the climate so rude? Why don’t we get rainfall, why
we have scarcity of resources? There are numerous questions. Ironically, only
one simple answer. We are on the verge of greatest disaster to human race and
whole nature. We are facing man made Climate Crisis.
We were searching for the
root cause for all this evil. We started undertaking talks and seminar to
understand why people just don’t care about the one single planet (we call it home)
they possess. We later found out the reason, it was indeed lack of education.
We are pretty sure that if the way Earth is presented to kids nowadays, it
won’t be long enough that we would submerge towards a society more selfish,
more arrogant and more unrealistic.
We at WSFE are running a program
called ‘We
Understand the Nature’. In
this program, we essentially educate the younger generation towards a more steady
and sustainable society, we call it ECO-LITERATE.
We have been
conducting this session way around the spell and have nearly covered more than
4,000 students. We have done this program in Pune, Dhule, Mumbai, Gujarat,
Kolhapur, etc. Our program target audience stretching from VIIth standard to
MBA (Post Graduation Level). Our volunteers are determined to make the current
generation eco-sensitive.
What have we
done so far.
In past four
years on localized scale, we have done the following activities,
1.
Planted 750 Neem
and Gulmohar trees (90% survival rate).
2.
Organized
complete-computer Literacy camp for 52 orphan children.
3.
Conducted social
awareness classes for school students.
4.
Organized cloth
donation camp for village people, poor school children, orphans.
5.
Aligned for blood
donation camp on college level.
6. Provided free
notebooks to children by recycling the old discarded.
7. Conducted
seminars in various schools to make the future generation aware of Global Warming
and its ill effects, covering approximately 4,000 students.
