lake cleaning

For five years now, real life hero Chandra Kishore Patil from Nashik has been guarding the Godavari by stopping people from dumping their garbage into the river.

With World Water Day 2020 around the corner, we are happy to announce that the Lake Revivers Collective is moving to its next project - the Hadosiddapura lake located in Sarjapur, Bengaluru.

“We wanted this event to serve as an image of what Bengaluru can do. We had expected around 500 volunteers and it was overwhelming to see the expectations being exceeded by large numbers."

Join the Lake Revivers Collective and donate now to help us breathe life back into India's lakes.

It took the team about ten years to clean 160 acres of the lake and its surroundings. But the process, as well as the end result, was deeply satisfying.

Even after changing houses and localities, the water situation did not improve, and Kalpana soon realised that the only way to resolve this, at least on a household level, was to start conserving water.
