Supporting Sustainability
The community responded positvely. 80% households now segragate waste. The compost pits we constructed, can produce 300 kg of compost per month, and can be sold, creating a source of income for the community members.

The solar lights are working well. Our community is thankful. Residents from nearby villages have also shown interest in understanding and using the lighting systems.

I became confident after the Sugran workshops. I learned to prepare exotic, international dishes, something I would never have been able to without this project coming to our community. I have now started taking catering orders.

CRISIL employees created awareness in the village on a variety of topics. They also helped a few villagers open bank accounts

In the process of learning, the importance of books is immense, whether science, arts or mathematics. Hence, the idea of a digital library to enhance the learning of visually impaired. We use the open source software, DAISY, to record books. This allows a volunteer, anywhere in the country to record a book, for someone else’s benefit, as per the relevant educational curriculum.

Community members are receptive. This inspires me to contribute more.
