Description

On 10th February 2025, the Rotaract Club of Atria I.T. organized "Art with Tote," a unique fundraiser and membership drive aimed at engaging participants in creative expression while raising funds for future club initiatives. A total of 20 participants joined the event, each painting their own customized tote bags with vibrant and artistic designs. The paintings on the tote bags were truly remarkable, showcasing a mix of nature, abstract art, and pop culture references. Some standout designs included a pair of intricately detailed sea turtles, a bold cactus illustration, a stunning blue butterfly with the phrase "You Are Magic," and a vivid tulip design. One of the most unique pieces was a creative take on the Google Chrome "No Internet" dinosaur (T-Rex), adding a playful and nostalgic touch to the collection. Each bag reflected the participant’s creativity, making them one-of-a-kind artistic pieces. Financially, the fundraiser was a success. Each tote bag was procured at ₹30 and sold at ₹100, yielding a profit of ₹70 per bag. A total of 10 bags were sold, generating ₹700 in profit for the club. This initiative not only helped raise funds but also provided a platform for members to showcase their artistic skills and contribute to a meaningful cause. Beyond fundraising, "Art with Tote" served as an excellent opportunity to extend our Rotaract membership. The event attracted new participants, encouraging them to engage with the club and its initiatives. It successfully combined creativity, sustainability, and community involvement, reinforcing the idea that art can be both impactful and purposeful.
