Description

The Rotaract Club of Atria I.T. has been steadfastly committed to environmental sustainability through their flagship event, "Newspaper Bag Donation 3.0" This project, now in its second year, highlights the club’s dedication to addressing plastic pollution by promoting the use of sustainable alternatives like paper bags. Over the past year, the club successfully collected more than 650 paper bags as part of their "Make a Bag" initiative, which involved enthusiastic participation from junior students of the college. These students not only contributed to the environmental cause but also gained valuable experience in community service. Once the bags were collected, the club’s directors organized a donation drive in the RT Nagar area. They personally visited fruit vendors and small-scale businesses to distribute the paper bags, ensuring that the initiative reached the grassroots level of the community. By engaging with local vendors and educating them on the importance of reducing plastic usage, the club made a significant impact on the daily lives of these small businesses. This effort not only helped promote eco-consciousness but also fostered a sense of responsibility toward environmental conservation within the local community.
