Help 18-Year-Old Saniya From Strong Little Paws To Feed The Poor Strays

by with No Comment EnvironmentEventFundraising CampaignsInspiring StoryPetsWildlife

Meet Saniya From Strong Little Paws

Saniya is an eighteen year old animal welfare worker with over a hundred animals under her care. She’s raising funds for stray animals under her care and their medical expenses. She manages whatever she can herself but as the number of animals increases, she turns to the community for support.

She rescued her first dog when she was fourteen years old. She just appeared outside her society, somehow. She was an orphaned, cold & hungry puppy. She’d lost all of her family during the winter rains & was being attacked by the street dogs outside her society. Saniya picked her up & built her a cardboard box home, shifted her to her society’s main gate & kept her there for about twenty days post which she was adopted. Throughout that period, she would wake up at five every morning to check up on her & put her to bed at 11:30, without fail. That was probably the first time in her life that she was voluntarily waking up that early, when it was that cold & she was extremely happy about it. Anyway, when she was with Saniya for that twenty day period, Saniya had no idea as to what she was supposed to do, so she was added to a bunch of groups. In those groups was, tremendous, heart wrenching pain. She saw images of dogs in so much pain pop up every ten minutes from all over the city & it kind of just opened her eyes up to this part of the world that we ignore so easily even though it’s right in front of us. Ever since, she started noticing the dogs near her house, she saw them everywhere she went, and most of them were in terrible conditions. She started helping them slowly. One dog at a time! On a larger scale, she started feeding these dogs during Covid, but this was where it actually began, when Olivia ended up at her society’s gate.

Crowdfunding-Benefits-Impaac-Foundation-non-profit-funds-10rganic-sustainableDevelopment-president-sustainable-help-support

What Does She Do?

Currently, Saniya feeds 150 dogs on a daily basis & is responsible for their medical health too. She helps sterilise & vaccinate dogs, she has helped more than 75 dogs in their spays, this helps in preventing painful deaths for little puppies only because they’re forced to live on the streets. She has helped vaccinate various dogs, which in turn saves them from viral and life threatening diseases like parvo, distemper & rabies. Rabies being eliminated also helps us in various other ways. She rescues dogs that need it. While she likes to stay focused in her sector & noida, she can usually never deny help to an animal in pain, so she helps dogs in the Delhi NCR region. Some of her rescues only in 2022 include a sexually assaulted eleven year old street dog, the amputation of a poor six year old dog who was partially paralysed in one of her hands because of a reckless car, a puppy thrown off a six feet tall wall, now adopted and thriving, the twin tower rescue, helping six puppies from drowning in heavy monsoon & raising them ever since, helping a dog whose nose broke because he was beaten by a rod, various distemper infected dogs etc. 
 
She prefers to call her as young & naive but the vision is to not stop. It is to turn strays – those who don’t belong or are homeless to community dogs- those who are a part of our community. She’ll help as many dogs as she can. Most importantly, she never wants to say no to a rescue. She strongly believe that every life matters & she’ll go to the ends of the earth to make sure she’s doing her bit & helping these voiceless beings, being their voice & making their life easier.
Foundation-non-profit-funds-10rganic-sustainableDevelopment-president-sustainable-help-support

Her Vision

To make this generation understand why it’s so important to keep humanity alive and the ways in which we can do it. 

Her Mission

To open a little shelter for old & handicapped dogs later on, educate children about compassion and coexistence & just keep rescuing dogs.

Foundation-non-profit-funds-10rganic-sustainableDevelopment-president-sustainable-help-support

Help Her To Help Strays

Saniya is an eighteen year old college student at Kamla Nehru College, Delhi University. Since she’s a student, she doesn’t earn. However, dogs are suffering NOW. She cannot wait to start earning and then help these babies. When she rescued on a smaller scale, her parents funded it, but as her initiative grew, they couldn’t anymore. Animals are in need of help every hour of every day in some or the other corner of our country, she cannot help them all, but she wants to help as many as she can. She can only do it, if she has enough money to. Operations, medical stays, medications all cost a lot, and while, not every individual can start rescuing animals, it’s a very difficult job and she understands but, they can help the ones who do it. After all, every life matters, because every heart that beats deserves a fair fighting chance. She gives her 100% to make life easier for these kids & all she need is a little support, because she never wants to say no to an animal in need, she never wants to say, if she could afford better medical care, maybe she could save this dog. They already struggle so much for the most basic needs, if she herself going through a little trouble & helping them while they’re in pain saves their life, she wants to give them that fair fighting chance & she needs her fellow humans to help me do it!

There are so many of them, but some include her first rescue, who if she hadn’t helped would’ve died within days, but here she is today, living life like a queen. There’s also bulbul, her eleven year old stray dog who was sexually assaulted or raped by drunk construction workers. If she hadn’t picked her up when she did, she would still be living in that pathetic unending hell, but today she’s thriving at loony tails, a shelter in Gurgaon where Saniya has sent her. 

Funding is becoming a huge problem for her and your contribution towards helping these poor animals will literally save their lives. You can help save these babies by even the smallest donations. Click on the donate button and share this page with your friends and family, it’ll mean the world. We will try my best to keep you updated on expenses and billings from this campaign.

Help Piku and Paw To Get Three Hundred Community Dogs Sterilized

by with 2 Comments Inspiring StoryPetsWildlife

The Inspiration Behind Sterilization

Priyamvada and her friend Varsha are raising funds for the sterilization of 300 community dogs.

There was a mama dog who was pushed to deliver her babies in a drain. She passed away two days after giving birth. She carried these babies for 65 very difficult days – keeping herself alive on bits of rotten food, filthy water, abuse, and zero rest only to not be able to spend time with them or be there for them when they needed her the most. The babies did not get the chance to even look at their own mama. Who deserves that? They don’t know what killed her – did her body give up because of multiple pregnancies or was it depression from not being able to fend for her babies or abuse from unrelenting humans or her own general physical health that killed her. All they know is that it is on all of us. We all have not bothered to care for our animals – they’re not eating well, they’re not sleeping well, they’re getting beaten up day in and day out. When they were reported about the babies, they immediately arranged for fosters who could hand-raise the babies. So many well-meaning, qualified and experienced people got involved and they both did everything in their power to help. 48 hours – not a single one of these cubs survived. That is 9 precious little lives lost, including the mother. There are thousands of female dogs that get killed every day just like this one, thousands that live in depression for not being able to fend for their babies while barely keeping themselves alive and thousands that will continue to die if we don’t do anything about it.

 

There is only one thing that could have prevented this situation – STERILIZATION and hence this fundraiser.

 

Crowdfunding-Benefits-Impaac-Foundation-non-profit-funds-10rganic-sustainableDevelopment-president-sustainable-help-support

What Do They Do?

They have gotten 500 community dogs sterilized ever since they started in November last year. Like any other journey it was a slow start but once they gained experience, they were able to help more of our little animals in need. While 500 may seem like a big number, it fades in comparison to the number of dogs that continue to suffer and could really be helped by sterilizing them.

To any sterilization program, speed and consistency are of essence. To ensure that their sterilization drives are effective, they will need to put in consistent efforts and get as many animals sterilized as possible until they reach at least 80% sterilization in one geography. To continue the sterilization program, Varsha and Priyamvada have given themselves a new target of another 300 little animals and to raise funds for that they have put this fundraiser together.

They’re really scared about the target. Sterilization is not known, understood or supported by many. But they’re determined because they know that the animals are in desperate need for it. It breaks our hearts to see our animals suffer so badly. Sterilization is the single best way to alleviate their struggle in the long run. Please help them to help their little animals and consider donating to our fundraiser. Every single contribution (big or small) counts. Please also extend your solidarity by sharing our appeal with your friends and family. We’re only as strong as you are.

VET PARTNERS

Their veterinarian partners for the sterilization drives are Friendicoes (https://friendicoes.org/) from Delhi. It costs them Rs.1,700 for one dog. This includes the sterilization surgery, their transport to and from Friendicoes and their anti-rabies shot.

They’re raising a total fund of Rs.1,700 x 300 = Rs. 5,10,000

Every single penny will be transferred to them directly.

WHY IS STERILIZATION IMPORTANT

[1] Scanty resources – Our community dogs survive on scanty resources. Their main source of food is our collective garbage – rotten bread loaves, dried and hard roties, rotten vegetable peels, and leftover packaged food. They can barely fend for themselves. Most of them go hungry for days together. One meal a day is a distant dream. Imagine having to be responsible for 10 more little lives.

[2] Dogs are extremely sensitive – Mama dogs are extremely sensitive. Not being able to feed their babies affects them immensely. If they are not able to take care of their babies, it pushes them into depression.

[3] Health of the female dogs – One female dog can produce babies twice a year and each time they can produce up to 11 babies. Our community dogs aren’t in the best of their health. Becoming pregnant twice in one year or even once every year affects their health adversely. They become anemic and weak. On most occasions their bodies can’t bear the pregnancy and they either pass away with the babies still undelivered or die immediately post their delivery.

[4] It protects them from cancers – There are a number of potentially fatal health conditions and transmissible diseases that animals can contract or develop as a result of being intact and breeding; for example, pyometra, TVT, and reproductive cancers. These risks are eliminated when the animal is spayed or neutered.

[5] Prevents fights among male dogs and subsequently saves them from deep wounds that get infested with maggots and if not tended to (which is mostly the case) can prove fatal.

On the whole, animals who have been sterilized at an early age tend to live longer, healthier lives, potentially increasing their lifespans by an average of one to three years for dogs, and three to five years for cats.

THEIR EXPERIENCE IN RESCUE WORK

Together they’ve gotten 500 community dogs sterilized so far with the help of their partners Dogs (& Cats) of Delhi and a Vancouver based charity – Yogi Street Dog Rescue Society. Together they’ve rescued hundreds of dogs. Varsha has been rescuing for more than 7 years and Priyamvada has been doing it for the past 4 years. They’ve only recently started documenting their work on – Piku and Paw

They are not a registered NGO. They only help the animals on an individual level. They mostly make use of their salaries or raise funds from time to time. This is their first ever big fundraiser. They do hope to be able to achieve their goal.

Thank you all immensely for your kindness.

Please be kind to your community animals.

Ashok Khosla – The Pioneer Behind Sustainable Development

by with No Comment Inspiring Story

Out of the 8 billion people present on planet earth only a very few of them actually put in efforts to help nurture and protect the environment from further environmental degradation by devoting their time, money or resources to the cause. Ashok Khosla is one such individual who took it in his own hands to start spreading awareness and working actively to spread the concept of sustainable development in the world. He became deeply invested in the issue during his younger days at Harvard wherein he studied and worked closely with like minded people to arrive at solutions to the drastic consequences of polluting the earth. While others around him were focused on writing about the apocalyptic future Khosla decided to pose solutions so that humanity does not arrive on the brink of depletion.

Crowdfunding-Benefits-Impaac-Foundation-non-profit-funds-AshokKhosla-sustainableDevelopment

He started by educating the general mass and spreading mass awareness by writing and publishing more than 300 professional papers, articles and reports. He soon started development alternatives in 1982 that focused on developing sustainable strategies that are aimed for people from all classes and rungs. Some of their top projects includes integrated village programmes, women empowerment, sustainable habitat, skills and green jobs, etc. He works on the grassroot level to ensure that everyone gets a chance to be a part of a change in the situation.

How To Raise Funds ?

by with 4 Comments Fundraising Campaigns

Needing funds sometimes becomes an absolute necessity in someone’s life. It could be a life-threatening disease or something like starting a business. In situations where an individual or an organization is in dire need of money or resources that is when funding comes into the picture. Funding can also take the form of donating your time and effort through volunteering for noble causes. Funds can be generated in a wide variety of ways either by the joint collaboration of many individuals together, organisation or a single individual donating for a cause. These funds can be raised both online and offline methods both of which prove to be incredibly useful to the ones in need. Impaac today wishes to divert your attention towards the 5 most effective ways to raise funds and help yourself as well as the ones in need around you.

Crowdfunding-Benefits-Impaac-Foundation-non-profit-funds

Crowdfunding

One of the easiest and most used methods to raise funds is crowdfunding. Crowdfunding refers to when a lot of individuals or organisations come together to raise funds for a noble, charitable or even business cause. A lot of crowdfunding platforms have sprung up in the last couple of decades in India as well as around the world, where campaigns are made and promoted so that people can donate for the cause. Even little donations as people pool together money and their resources to contribute for a good cause are appreciated and help people to deal with their problems. Impaac is one such crowdfunding platform that is totally free, and can help people as well as organisations in their charitable causes towards the greater good of the society.

Crowdfunding-Benefits-Impaac-Foundation-non-profit-funds

Loans

Taking loans is a traditional method of raising funds whenever you or someone close to you is in dire need of funds. Banks provide reasonable and affordable loans with low interest rates so that the general public incures no harm to their financial condition.

How To Start Giving

by with No Comment EnvironmentFundraising Campaigns

As rightly said by Helen Keller “alone we can do so little, together we can do so much”, as much as changing the face of the world we are living in currently. The act of giving has been discussed and spoken about in abundance but it still is a concept kept discrete. It is the ability to give something either measured in monetary value or service-based value without demanding or expecting anything in return, a selfless act aimed towards helping the underprivileged sections of our society. Little acts of service can contribute towards a greater cause for someone, probable even save someone’s life. Your act of giving doesn’t always need to have a material aspect conjoined with itself, simple acts of kindness like being there for someone during their bad times and lending them emotional support is also an act of giving. While there are multiple ways in which you can start your journey of giving, we have curated top 5 ways in which even you can become a contributor to the smiles of millions around the world.

Charity starts at home

You must have heard this quote being used a lot when we start talking about charity, its literal meaning is to start at home by giving to your family members, friends and close ones. It implies to fulfil our duties towards the ones who have been with us through thick and thin and then slowly venture out and start helping others. Little acts of giving such as helping a friend start a business by becoming their initial investor or helping your mother start a YouTube channel are all simple yet effective acts of giving. They need not be elaborate gestures but simple yet loving acts that can or may not involve materialistic needs.

Crowdfunding-Benefits-Impaac-Foundation-non-profit-platform-environmentalist-giving-charitystartsathome-HelenKeller-Underprivilaged-donate-volunteer-reduce-reuse-recycle-orphanage-old-age-home

Donate

The next crucial step is to donate, start by donating old cloths, books, etc to the underprivileged or drop them off at orphanages, old – age homes etc. Things that you do not need anymore can be of great value and importance to someone so Instead of them ending up in landfills and contributing to global wastage they could end up being of use to the needy. You can thus indulge in the art of giving without even spending excess while also following the principles of reduce, reuse and recycle. Some things that you can donate to the deprived are:
• Houseware
• Electronic items
• Bedding (pillows, mattresses, comforters etc.)
• Toys
• Books and knowledge material
• Clothing
• Hardware etc.

Crowdfunding-Benefits-Impaac-Foundation-non-profit-platform-environmentalist-giving-charitystartsathome-HelenKeller-Underprivilaged-donate-volunteer-reduce-reuse-recycle-orphanage-old-age-home

Volunteer

Volunteering is another way in which you can participate in the act of giving. Volunteer for community programmes, orphanages, old age homes, charity runs, etc. so that you can be an effectively help the needy upfront. You make sure that the donations are going towards the right use while also helping the underprivileged to make use of those donations. It is a service based giving act where you give your time and labour for community service. You can work as a regular volunteer or as an emergency volunteer that goes to work when emergency situations such as droughts, floods, famines etc hit by making necessary aids available to those hit by the phenomenon. You can start by applying to nearby volunteer-based organisations and start devoting a little amount of your time, love and care to the cause.

Reduce, reuse, recycle

Just like you give back to your community even the environment around us needs your help, love and care to grow and thrive. Start to give back not dust and pollution but sustainable methods that ensure that the environment sticks with us in the long run. Practice the 3r’s that is reduce, reuse and recycle so that less garbage ends up in landfills and ditches.
• Reduce the amount of material you consume and practice inculcating the “less is more” agenda in your daily life.
• Reuse as many things as possible around your home, if not possible donate them instead of giving them up to landfills
• Recycle materialistic things such as making curtains out of old bedsheets or reusing plastic or tin containers

Make it a goal

Practise giving as part of your routine. Save some money every month that goes to charity, it won’t burn a hole in your pocket while also fulfilling someone’s dream. Make short term goals like volunteering for a particular organisation or participating in a charity run so that even in your busy life you can dedicate some time, money, labour, love and care to the needy and the deprived. Do not allow yourself to get out of this habit of giving be it however meagre it be, remember it is better to start giving more once your financial condition improves rather than start from the bottom and start giving again.

M Yoganathan – The Conductor Turned Environmentalist

by with 2 Comments EnvironmentInspiring Story

The Tree Man, also known as Marimuthu Yoganathan, is an Indian environmenal activist who worked as a bus driver before gradually developing a lifelong love of nature. M. Yoganathan battled against the timber mafia in the Nilgiris while still in school by putting handwritten signs on walls, marking the locations of treefelling with survey numbers, and pleading with law enforcement and forest officials to prosecute those responsible. He began his career as a bus conductor, but that didn’t quench his hunger for environmental activism; today, he offers free saplings to bus passengers in exchange for their tickets, and he devotes a significant amount of his salary to this cause.

He had a close relationship with Tamil Nadu Green Movement activist Jayachandran in Kotagiri, and this relationship only fueled his passion in nature preservation. In 1999, Yoganathan started working for the Tamil Nadu state transport company. Due to his frequent absences from work, he has been transferred 40 times in his 17 years of employment as a bus conductor. Nevertheless, he keeps pushing for environmental safety, and his family continues to assist him in this endeavour. According to him, almost 5,000 schools in the state replied to his request on June 5, World Environment Day, to swear an oath to preserve the environment and plant at least one tree on their campus.Despite this, not many people are familiar with him or his work. We however work our way to introduce this magnificient personality to the many people who continue to look on for inspiration.

Rajendra Singh – The Waterman Of India

by with No Comment EnvironmentInspiring Story

Rajendra Singh is an active environmentalist hailing from Rajasthan who has been up to his environmental activism since the late 90’s. He is also known as the waterman of India for his efforts to save and preserve the water resources in and around Rajasthan not just for the state but for all of India’s benefit. While still being in school, he got himself involved in a lot of social causes like village sanitation program, alcoholism eradification program, opened up a library for the village kids, while also solving local conflicts. His active efforts continued all through his adulthood as he joined the Tarun Bharat Sangh through sustainable development initiatives, Tarun Bharat Sangh attempts to improve the lives of an impoverished segment of the population. Soon after he reorganised the whole organisation into a more effective movement that focused majorly on environmental issue around India.

He was tormented by the inability of his superiors to do anything to save the environment or save Rajasthan as it faced severe drought all around the year. He finally left his job, sold all of his household belongings and moved to Thanagazi tehsil in Alwar district, where he encountered the severe water problem that the villagers faced. It was so severe that it came to be known as the “dark zone”. He focused on rebuilding johads (traditional check dams) instead of exploitative bore wells that further gave rise to water scarcity. Within 3 years this barren landscape was transformed into one of Rajasthan’s most luscious and green fields. In the years that followed, TBS expanded and constructed 4,500 johads in 850 villages across 11 districts in Rajasthan. Rajendra Singh won the Magsaysay Award for Community Leadership, Jamnalal Bajaj Award, and Stockholm Water Prize. He was also instrumental in stopping the contentious Loharinag Pala Hydro Power Project. His dedication has inspired many upcoming environmentalists to take up the flag themselves and work towards environmentalist protection and preservation.

Help Pramiti Foundation to build a Home for Paws In Need at Kanpur

About Pramiti Foundation's Journey

Kanika Mishra, the founder of Pramiti Foundation, says that she was fortunate enough in having an upbringing where believing in Karma played a major role. Being kind to all living being was not just said but implemented since childhood. While she has seen growing both her parents helping everyone they can they could this is in gene. She has always found herself attracted towards wagging tails and eventually developed love for all animals. A little bit of Nik and nack she started her journey for feeding and aiding animals few days before lockdown during pandemic in 2020.

What Do They Do?

Started feeding 150+ doggo kids all alone during entire lockdown she has unfortunately always been a single woman army. She thinks the reason of being single work woman is because somewhere she feels she have had a great experience to serve with the years of experience she has covered globally in her profession. PS – no overlooking eye for detail is her style and it never works in local market however , being a strong believer and keeping integrity to the highest she continued to be with doggo kids at the moment feeding 85+ daily fostering special need 7 at the moment ofcourse the numbers decrease rather increase more or less !! 

Conducting mega drive twice or thrice a month where she ended up feeding 100+ doggo kids conducting vaccination drives to deworming drive every second month special festive day drive and so on.

Their Vision

Spreading compassion by following the rule of EMPATHY & not SYMPATHY

The need to raise fund is important because she was a mum to nearly 85 plus the fosters and the on going cases isn’t manageable all alone now. With a vision of doing something for a long run made her realise her sad financial statements as she lost her job during pandemic and couldn’t join back in the city as either the pay was too low or she dint find a job. Now her focus is on just one thing make this goodness a lifestyle!! For that she has to get educated a slightly bit more into the stream of animal welfare and that’s why she appointed a guy from the mountains called Deepak to help see the kids who she is paying 20000inr 90000inr for the rented space where foster kids and Deepak stay cannot put them in society as we were anyways about to end up in trouble having excessive dogs in flat.

The campaign can help her share the load and so that she can focus more on what’s worth focusing wisely.

Help Them To Help Strays

Can’t say about how she can inspire but all stories of her kids are special to her. The journey of her kids with herself is non comparison. The feeling of being with wagging tails has actually helped her recover her depression to a point that she could have done too bad & would have been such a weak person to think of not living. One such beautiful memory is Coco whom she found her while she went to drink Sugarcane juice on a extremely hot afternoon may 2021. Coco was just say 2m/o pup dumped below the molasses and her hand was covered with flies &worms . Throwing the glass in trash she saw that little eye of hope sparkling and then she realized.

And then she realized that it was madam coco underneath those straws of sugarcane. She immediately picked her up and took her right outside the nearest medical store brought a bottle of betadine liquid and cleaned her wound then she took her to the nearest vet who wasn’t available as it was some Sunday places were not operational. She took madam coco to my place and did a tentative dressing of her hand as it was releasing such pungent discharge that her room started to have flies . Seems like her wound was rotten already. Next day she took her to another vet who is claimed also to be the one of best where he passed a statement which was too inappropriate for coco’s life and she definitely didn’t liked it. Well she kept shut let him do his job but she knew she ain’t coming back there. Finally that evening after searching a lot on good reliable vet she was recommended to Aastha Pet Clinic to Dr Kuldeep gautum. Her first interaction with him wasn’t very low as she clearly mentioned him that don’t treat her in a way please that she is from the streets treat her well as I’m a family now. And the kickass response was “Madam meri table me 3rs 300 3000 ya 300000 ka bhi dog hoga” or agar hope hogi to mai treatment karunga. These action lines build in slight confidence. After 45 continuous days of the surgery the back and forth visits to the visit to sleepless nights to mood swings our coco stood on three legs being one of the most naughty doggo in the place now. Though she has a lot of human fear in her but this is again something else she was working on. Her little one is nearly an year now by god’s grace healthy and naughty. Coco’s case made her feel like a mother the pain the cries the suffer of this little soul made her cry each time wondering why this is happening why that is happening how can she be saved etc . Coco isn’t less than her daughter!!

Jadhav Payeng – The Forest Man Of India

by with No Comment EnvironmentInspiring Story

The Forest Man of India is Jadav Molai Payeng, a forestry worker and environmental campaigner from Majuli. He has planted and cared for trees along the Brahmaputra River’s course for many years, transforming it into a forest reserve. The Mulai Reserve, which has a size of about 2,500 acres, used to be a magnificent location. However, the river floods everything in its path during the monsoon season every year, causing erosion and the destruction of homes and farmland. Every year the reserve shrunk by more than 50% over the past 70 years, and there are worries that it will be completely submerged in 20 years, forcing the 150,000 residents to leave their homes and lose their means of subsistence. And this is when Payeng stood up to help his community and become an inspiration for many.

Crowdfunding-Benefits-Impaac-Foundation-non-profit-platform-JadhavPayeng-Environmentalist-ForestMan-Majuli-trees-plants-hero-mensday

Payeng first planted bamboo before switching to other kinds. Before the trees started producing their own seed, planting trees took a lot of work. The population increased along with the density of his forest. Soon, the forest was home to hundreds of different bird species, as well as deer, rhinos, tigers, and even an elephant herd that wandered into it for three months out of the year. Experts in the field of wildlife have stated that the forest currently draws 80% of the world’s migrating birds. Officially, it is known as Molai forest. To honour Jadav, the people refer to it as Molai. Jadav feels protective of the land because it took almost 30 years for it to become a forest. He began planting in 1979, and he still doing so now.

Basanti Devi – The Environmentalist Behind Saving The Kosi River

by with No Comment EnvironmentInspiring Story

Basanti Devi is an Indian environmentalist who is attributed to be the mind and hand behind saving the Kosi River in Uttarakhand. Her life had been a tough testament to her struggles, she was married off to an older man when she was just 12, and within two years of her marriage, her husband died as she was sent off to live in an ashram for girls. At the mere age of 14, she started living at the Kausani ashram that was founded by Sarla Behn. She also started pursuing her studies and looking after children and women in the facility. Basanti Devi now 64 says that Kausani ashram changed her life for the better and inspired her to do social service and take up the issue of saving the Kosi River and working dedicatedly towards it. She received the Padma shri and the Nari Shakti award both of which were the highest honours. Devi Ji is now looked at as a champion crusader for both women’s empowerment and environmental protection.

Crowdfunding-Benefits-Impaac-Foundation-non-profit-platform-BasantiDevi-KosiRiver-KausaniAshram-environmentalist-environment-trees-forestdepartment-WomenEmpowerment-PadmaShri-NaariShakti

She was initially tasked with opening Bal Baris that were active centres of recreation for children and young adults. She started opening them in remote villages that also took care of the children’s education and nutrition. Devi read an article on how the Kosi River (the most important water resource for Uttarakhand) may cease to exist in a few decades due to the rapid felling of trees by local women. These local women were from poor households who had no access to any other source of firewood so Devi ji encouraged them to not cut trees but use the dry ones for fuel and firewood. She organised them into small groups that were aimed to save the Kosi River, this helped both empower women as well as save the environment. She also protested and fought against the forest department for cutting big trees. Although the results have taken time to manifest, springs that used to dry up in the summer are now active all year. Additionally, the forest exhibits greater diversity thanks to the appearance of more broad-leaved trees including oak, rhododendron, and myrica esculenta species.
