Greenathon Campaign

Go Green Concepts:

1.Garders and Vegetation plots at each Residential Area:

Every Home should maintain a garden which cultivates crops 
using good quality fertilizers & pesticides. Contributing a 
certain area of the garden for vegetation leads to betterment of Environment or Nature.

2. Comfrots of a city with facilities of village:

As we are busy in our daily lives with our routine activities, 
start growing vegetable plants nearby home as hobby.

Extra work / pressure you think? Well watering the plant in 
the morning and evening doesn’t look like a work.
This gives the place a look of city at the same time the mild 
climate and greenery of the village.

By adding two simple concepts in our daily lives we can keep our Nature

Clean – Healthy - Green

What is Greenathon-Go Green Campaign?

Greenathon campaign is a simple project conducted by 
People The Vision in which participants grow vegetables at 
their home. They sow the seeds, water it, nourish it and when 
the vegetables grow they utilize it for themselves.

Who can participate?

Any one who is interested, who is having interest to grow vegetables can participate.

How to participate?

The Greenathon project will be conducted from March 25th 
to May 25th 2013.During this, Participants will grow 
vegetables, at each stages of growth, i.e germination, 
flowering and harvest they click snaps and send to our 
mail box, peoplethevision@gmail.com. 
Participants can post the snaps in our FB event page.
People The Vision team will post the snaps in website as 
well as in our FB fan page.

It is as simple as this. MOST IMPORTANTLY THEY 
CONSUME THE SELF GROWN VEGETABLE!!!

Why Greenathon?

The main objectives of conducting this campaign are
1. Growing plants helps creating healthy atmosphere and
increase oxygen level.
2. There is need of taking serious attention towards agriculture.
As technology is growing with pace, People already have lost interest in growing crops, which in future can lead to a big crisis 
in food and consumables.
The available agricultural land are acquired and are converted 
into commercial places. The day is not so far where we start begging for food products. Hence creating awareness through 
this project.
3. The vegetables will be consumed by participants itself 
which keeps them fit with health, and for above all they will 
be investing only a bit of time to water and nourish the plants.

PS: People The Vision has already distributed seeds to 150+ students. Some have already started growing it. Best of 
luck to all of them. Happy harvesting!!

Create Food!!! Feed More!!! Kill Hunger!!!

Visit to Manasa Jyothi, A School for Special Children | Meals Donation Camp in Kundapura

Manasa Jyothi Koni

 

 

Manasa Jyothi is a founded residential school for children with a mental and/or physical handicap. Manasa Jyothi Trust has just opened a new school in Koni, Kundapur. The school is located in a beautiful area where there is a lot of greenery and playground for the children to play. Manasa Jyothi is a small school that has grown over the last ten years. As of January 2012 they have more than 20 children. These all gives them an environment with a large range of staff with various skills and expertise where the child can be appreciated as an individual. And now with the new building in Koni, they happily say that there no better place for a specially able child in India to be than in Koni.

 

The school is not funded by the government but by a private Trust and does not ask the parents for any fee. Therefore Manasa Jyothi functions, for the children without parents or with parents, who cannot or do not want to care for them, a place to live and receive education. For some children this school is their only chance in society.

 

Manasa Jyothi Trust was started in year 2000 with support from Mr. N. Sudarshan Nayak, Bangalore. The Trust continues to be active and needs a lot of support.

 

The school is actively managed by Shobha Madhyastha and Maartje van den Brand a Physiotherapist from The Netherlands. 

We Visited Manasa Jyothi on 5th August, 2012 and conducted a Meals donation Campaign and tried our level best to be a small Silver Lining in their lives. The visit was accompanied by the students of Saraswathi Group of Institutes. They all served the children the mean, feeded them with extreme love and care and also promised that they keep visiting such schools and do their best in coming days.
