Kalayatri: Exchanging Letter Of Positivity

Kalayatri, the seventh form of the nine Navadurga, symbolizes the destructive power of the goddess Mahadevi. She is the vanquisher of demons, spirits, and negative forces, compelling them to retreat upon her arrival. Inspired by the powerful symbolism of Kalayatri, the Rotaract Club of SSMRV College organized an event to harness the transformative potential of positivity. In an age where negativity and challenges surround us, the exchange of positive notes within our club members was envisioned as a powerful counterforce. The concept was simple yet profound: each member wrote heartfelt, encouraging letters of positivity to fellow club members. These notes were infused with words of inspiration, motivation, and hope. The act of writing and receiving such affirmations aimed to dissipate negative energy and foster a sense of unity and wellbeing within our club. The belief was that just as Kalayatri's arrival disperses malevolent forces, these letters of positivity would dispel negativity and inspire a stronger sense of community and support. It was a demonstration of our club's commitment to nurturing a nurturing, empowering, and inclusive environment. The Kalayatri event was a reminder that the power of words and positivity can be a mighty force against adversities and pessimism. In a world where we often grapple with challenges, we sought to cultivate a space where club members could find solace, encouragement, and strength through the simple act of sharing their hearts on paper.

As the Bengaluru city is facing major water crisis, we took this unfortunate situation as an opportunity to educate people about the water situation in the city and how playing dry holi can be fun too. We've also addressed the need to replace toxic chemical colors to organic colors and how a small act to replace wooden logs on the day of Holika Dahana with cow dung logs or dry leaves could help us reduce emissions and save trees.

Each story was crafted to highlight animation’s role in shaping culture, sparking imagination, and connecting people across diverse backgrounds. By sharing these vibrant animations, members not only demonstrated their enthusiasm for this dynamic art form but also illustrated how animation fosters creativity and unity within our club community. This celebration of International Animation Day reflects our commitment to engaging with new forms of expression and harnessing the power of digital media. Animation is a universal language that transcends barriers and brings stories to life in ways words often cannot.

Diya Painting Spectacular

Diya Painting Spectacular: Celebrating Diwali with Little Artists! On October 30th, 2024, we had the chance to bring a splash of Diwali joy to Government Higher Primary School in Jayanagar, and it was just as magical as it sounds! From 1:30 to 3:00 PM, the room was buzzing with excitement as kids, full of energy and big ideas, sat down with paintbrushes in hand and a blank diya in front of them. We handed out little clay diyas and a rainbow of paints, and the kids took it from there. Some dove straight in, covering their diyas in bold colors, while others took their time, carefully adding details and patterns. It was incredible to watch their creativity come alive—each diya became a mini-masterpiece, and the pride in their eyes as they showed off their work was priceless. As a fun twist, we ended the event by giving prizes to three kids whose diyas truly shone, but honestly, every single one of them walked away a winner. Seeing their smiles and knowing we helped boost their confidence and creativity was the best part. It was a Diwali to remember, full of art, joy, and bright young talents!

Stack It Up And E-waste Collection- Phase 1

Stack It Up and E-Waste Collection From 18th February 2025 to 21st February 2025, we embarked on an inspiring journey of environmental stewardship with our E-Waste and Paper Collection Drive, a heartfelt fundraising act aimed at making a positive impact. During this intensive four-day drive, community members came together with a shared vision—to reduce hazardous waste while generating vital funds for our cause. The response was overwhelming, as we successfully collected 257 kilograms of e-waste and paper, marking an impressive milestone in our journey towards sustainability. Every piece of discarded electronics and reams of paper had a story, and by redirecting them from landfill to proper recycling channels, we not only minimized environmental hazards but also reinforced the significance of responsible waste management. This event, titled “Stack It Up and E-Waste Collection,” served as Phase 1 of a larger initiative designed to raise awareness and funds. The energy and dedication demonstrated by every volunteer and donor were palpable, transforming what could have been a simple collection into a vibrant community movement. Through collaboration and commitment, we turned discarded items into opportunities for change, illustrating that when we stack up our efforts, even small contributions can lead to substantial outcomes. The drive has set a promising precedent for future phases, where contact community engagement and sustainable practices will pave the way for a cleaner, greener future while supporting our fundraising goals.

On March 23rd, 2025, we posted an awareness reel — a small piece of content, but something that meant a lot to us. It wasn’t flashy or over-the-top, just a simple, honest attempt to speak about something that matters. We poured our hearts into crafting it — choosing the right visuals, words, and tone — hoping it would connect with people, even if just a few. And when we saw the response, it genuinely warmed us. The reel reached 692 people — not just numbers on a screen, but real humans who took a moment out of their day to stop, watch, and think. What surprised and excited us even more was that 29.1% of those viewers weren’t even following us — strangers who somehow found our message and chose to stay for a moment. With 30 likes and 2 shares, it may not have broken the internet, but it touched a few hearts, and honestly, that’s what matters most to us. Knowing that someone cared enough to share it with others? That was everything. Social media can often feel loud and overwhelming, but in that noise, creating something real — something with intention — and watching it quietly make its way to people felt incredibly fulfilling. It reminded us that awareness doesn’t always need a spotlight; sometimes, it just needs authenticity. That reel may have lasted less than a minute, but its impact — on us and hopefully on others — will stick around much longer.

From 9:30 in the morning to 6:30 in the evening, 11 BODs and 14 members came together with one goal: to give the school a fresh breath of life. The building, worn out by time, was in need of some love — and that’s exactly what we brought, with paintbrushes in hand and smiles on our faces. Slowly, the dull, faded walls started to bloom with color. Every corner we touched came alive — with nature-inspired art, bright colors, and little creative touches that made the place feel welcoming and joyful. It wasn’t just about painting walls; it was about giving the students a space they could feel proud of. As we painted, kids peeked out from classrooms, their eyes wide with excitement. The joy on their faces was the most heartwarming reward. And to think — all of this came together with just ₹120. It reminded us that when there’s passion and teamwork, even the smallest budget can create something magical. By the time the sun began to set, we were exhausted but happy — not because of how much we painted, but because of how much heart we put into it. Nature Canvas 2.0 was more than a project; it was a memory we’ll carry with us for a long, long time.

For many, his spicy snack is just street food, but for us and countless others, it’s comfort, nostalgia, and a taste of home wrapped in a paper cone. Sitting down with Mr. Ramesh felt less like an interview and more like chatting with an old friend. He spoke with so much warmth — about his journey, the struggles of running a small business, and the joy he finds in serving familiar faces every day. His eyes lit up as he talked about the people who stop by his stall, not just for the food, but for the little interactions that make everyday life feel a bit lighter. When we shared the video, we weren’t aiming for numbers — we just wanted to tell his story, and we’re so grateful it reached 414 viewers and received 39 likes.

Week 6 of Project Elevate was one of those experiences that stays with you long after it ends. We visited a government school with the goal of teaching children about something incredibly important — understanding Good Touch and Bad Touch. It's a sensitive topic, but one that every child deserves to learn in a safe, supportive space. What truly moved us was how curious, bright, and open-hearted the students were. They listened with such focus during the storytelling session, asked thoughtful questions during the Q&A, and responded with a level of understanding far beyond their years. And after all that meaningful conversation, we wrapped up the session with a spontaneous, joy-filled dance — because sometimes, that’s the best way to let kids just be kids.

It was one of those light-hearted, feel-good activities that brought big smiles to our stories and even bigger waves of nostalgia to our hearts.
