In a world where animals are too often seen only as commodities to be bought and sold, Govardhan Eco Village stands as an exemplary exception. Our NGO partner is a sanctuary for cows, bulls and many other animals. They find not just shelter but a true home. At ISKCON's Govardhan Eco Village, every life is sacred and deserving of love, care, and respect. Here, animals are embraced instead of being seen as a burden. The dedicated and compassionate team truly believes they deserve a life of dignity too.However, the NGO depends on public support to provide the best care to animals. Sustaining this refuge of compassion requires resources for food, housing, medical care, and the dedicated hands that make it all possible. Your support can help ensure that no animal under this roof ever experiences fear or deprivation.

Unburdened by the demands of milking cycles, they graze contentedly, forming close bonds with the caretakers who tend to their every need. Through this work, the NGO and its team strives to show the world that true service is not about what one takes from nature but what one gives back.“At Govardhan Eco Village, we don’t ask how gaumata (cows) can benefit us. We ask how we can keep gaumata happy,” says Gaurang Das, renowned spiritual leader and ISKCON Governing Body member.And it’s not just cows that this NGO serves. When a racehorse’s racing days are over, its value in the eyes of the industry vanishes, and they are painfully put out. Govardhan Eco Village has become a home for many of these majestic creatures who would have otherwise met a sad end. Here horses roam freely across lush pastures, a life without the constant abuse. With expert veterinary care, balanced nutrition, and gentle rehabilitation, each horse learns to trust again and to thrive in a peaceful environment.<img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/3ca82071-b2c2-4e98-b258-9b77e9298762.webp" />Male calves born on dairy farms often face immediate culling or abandonment simply because they cannot produce milk. At Govardhan Eco Village, they welcome them with open arms. Instead of a cruel fate, these young bulls grow up surrounded by affection, safe from harm and provided with the highest quality feed and medical attention. As they mature, they become symbols of hope, reminding us that every living being has intrinsic worth.Give the gift of life and love to those who cannot ask for it in words.

“When I see a monkey lying on the roadside, abused by people or bleeding after getting electrocuted, I feel their pain as if it were my own. They scream not just in agony, but in fear that they might be beaten up again,” says Hari Kishan Mangle, founder of Guardian of Angels, an NGO devoted to rescuing and treating injured and abused monkeys.Hari spent everything to set up a rescue and rehabilitation centre equipped to treat animals but his own efforts could take him only this far. He is in urgent need of support to continue providing urgent medical care to monkeys and other animals. Your donation can mean life for an animal.

Some tremble so much from fear they won’t even touch food,” says Hari Kishan.At Guardian of Angels, every rescue is a race against time. The team rushes to the spot, stabilises the monkey with emergency care, and brings them to the centre for treatment. Trained veterinarians clean wounds, perform surgeries, and nurse them back to health. “Watching a monkey who couldn’t move begin to climb again after weeks of treatment, that’s what keeps us going,” Hari Kishan shares.From fear to freedomMany monkeys that reach Guardian of Angels have endured unimaginable cruelty, chained for years, burned, or beaten for amusement. “When they first arrive, their eyes are full of pain and distrust,” says Hari Kishan. “But with time, care, and love, those same eyes begin to soften. They start to trust again.”Once recovered, the team ensures the monkeys are safely released back, far from the dangers of roads and electric lines. For those who can never return, the centre becomes their permanent home, where they can play, rest, and live without fear.<img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/769dd661-a3c0-4f55-8903-b51e10381a99.webp" />Why your help is urgently neededRescuing and healing an injured monkey takes days of intensive care and resources, from medicines and surgeries to food and shelter.With calls for help increasing every week, Guardian of Angels struggles to meet the growing cost of care. “Every life matters. But sometimes, due to lack of funds, we have to make heartbreaking choices,” says Hari Kishan. “That’s why we’re asking for your support, so no suffering animal is ever left behind.”Your donation will help:Rescue and transport injured and abused monkeysProvide life-saving medical treatment and surgeriesFeed and rehabilitate recovering monkeysExpand and maintain the shelter for long-term residentsBe their guardian, give them hope, healing, and lifeYour contribution helps an injured monkey stand again, eat again, live again.

“The Hummingbird School is my only hope to succeed in life. I feel I am trying to swim out of this place (Majuli) and my school stands as a beacon on the other side of the river. If my school closes down, I feel I will drown in this river. Not just me but every child in villages around here and our families depend on this school”, says Roopjyoti, a bright, young student of Ayang Trust’s The Hummingbird School.Majuli Island, where The Hummingbird School is situated, faces severe floods and constant riverbank erosion, leaving most of its residents struggling to survive. For the children of this impoverished tribal community, education remains their only path to hope and dignity.Your support to Ayang Trust’s Hummingbird School can ensure that its students can have a future different from their parents who are struggling to get even two meals a day. Donate now.Donate easily through UPI, all debit/credit cards and net banking. Charitable donations to this fundraising campaign are tax exempted under 80G of the Income Tax Act (India).From IIT Kharagpur to Majuli“When I first visited the remote villages of Majuli I was shocked. The extent of the struggles here was beyond my imagination. These villages had no connectivity to the outside world, and very limited access to healthcare and quality education”, says Bipin Dhane, founder of the school. Bipin, who grew up in the small town of Satara in Maharashtra, faced countless financial hardships. Despite his struggles, Bipin secured admission to the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, and then went on to take up a job in Singapore. Owing to his childhood experiences Bipin was always inclined towards helping the less fortunate, and he believed in the transformative power of education. It was in 2016 that Bipin left his lucrative career abroad and moved to Majuli, to provide the children from this inaccessible river island education they were deprived of.“Whatever little money I had saved, I gave it to my parents. I had no money to start the school. It was then that villagers came together to build bamboo huts. Each family donated bamboo, wood, and whatever little they could. It was the parents of our students who erected huts for the school to start”, shares Bipin while talking about the inception of The Hummingbird School in 2017.Help Bipin save underprivileged children of Majuli Island from generational poverty and give them a chance to succeed. Donate now.Donate to save future generations“People of the island value education greatly because they know that their children have no future without it. Parents have vested their faith in The Humming Bird School because they don't want their children to suffer the way they have been”, says Bipin. Bipin says, “Today we have over 300 students in our school and about 90 children live in our hostel. Many of these children are orphaned or come from single-parent households, struggling each day without adequate care or resources.. I urge each one of you to come forward and donate to us so we can help hundreds of children escape from the cycle of poverty and build lives of dignity, hope, and opportunity.”Donate to this fundraiser by Give, India’s largest and most trusted online donation platform, to help children of Majuli Island get an education and break the cycle of poverty.

Much of the harm to the environment is caused by humans and a major part of the damage is irreversible. There is an urgent need to protect the ecology. This can ONLY be achieved by changing the collective mindset from ignorance to education, and pushing the aware people towards action. Babul is engaged in spreading environmental awareness along the 3 verticals of environment, biodiversity, and sustainable development, using short videos, social media and traditional advocacy. We are slowly and steadily making progress towards a less ignorant and more proactive society. We have many eco-awareness projects lined up and we need your valuable support to realize them. Awareness is the first step towards environmental protection. Our flagship program towards this end is the world's 1st Online EcoDictionary in video format. We have about 15 Facebook pages dedicated to biodiversity awareness. We are building the library for easy access to people. We regularly conduct advocacy events. Every year in June, we organize the Environment Film Festival at Hyderabad and take it to different places. We conduct screenings , eco-games and activities which include biowalks and online and offline contests. Some of our popular programs are EcoDoctor, EcoAntakshari, BioRangoli, Plastic Free, FunDuChallenge, Virtual Zoo etc., We also run a channel on YouTube. In view of the extreme hardships faced by the situation resultant of the Corona Virus pandemic, we are also in to providing Covid Relief to various communities affected by lockdown and health regulations. We assisted about 3500 migrant labour stuck in Hyderabad during April - June 2020. The relief included food, ration, lockdown essentials, travel assistance, tech support etc., From July 2020 onwards we are also included the private school teachers, street vendors, handloom weavers etc., in our beneficiary groups. We have a view count of 30000 plus on our videos on YouTube. Our posts, live streams and other videos on social media attract good engagement and shall continue to do so. We cut down on costs by using natural light for our shoots, along with adhering to the best practices of sustainable filmmaking and distribution.

Gen-X is not using hard-copy dictionaries any more. Being the youngest science, Environment has many less known rather unknown words most of which are compound words [eg. Climate Change] that are not available in regular dictionaries. In view of this there is an urgent need for a video format dictionary for ENVIRONMENT made accessible to all. This bits at the base of Environmental ignorance and propels people to ACT towards Nature protection by spreading much needed awareness. Sponsor EcoWord or EcoPhrases and see your name and picture in the credits of the video hosted in YouTube for posterity. 
 BABUL is building EcoDictionary under Creative Commons hosted in YouTube for universal access with the support of the people by inviting them to sponsor an EcoWord or a group of EcoPhrases. Each word will have a video of 2 to 3 minutes explaining the meaning and related information. The sponsor will be credited in the video credits with name and photo. This is only such project in the world and first of its kind. 
 With enhanced awareness about environmental issues people will take informed decisions leading the actions to protect the Environment, Conserve Biodiversity and promote Sustainable Development. All will be able to Live in and leave behind a better world.

Rampant use of plastic is causing lot of damage to us all humans, to other living creatures and to Nature as a whole. In some cases this damage is irreversible. Untold misery to animals, birds, aquatic life; choked drains &amp; urban floods; high incidence of cancer; pollution of land, water, vegetation and air; ugly streets and surroundings; mosquito breeding etc., are some examples of the harm to Environment caused by plastics. Indiscriminate use of Single Use Plastics, irresponsible disposal, weak garbage collection systems, low awareness rate are some of the reasons which need to be fixed. Even though there is some legislation in place, it is proving insufficient due to poor implementation. What is needed is a collective strong will of all the stakeholders to drastically reduce the production and use of Single Use Plastics. The root cause of Plastic pollution is its durability and quality of being non-biodegradable. Though efforts are on to find technological solutions to this, the best way to deal with this is bringing a behavioural change in the attitude of people towards plastic. <img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/00b5d61e-4d4b-4cda-bb17-1f1fd3f995de.jpeg" /> 
 <img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/519eb9ed-89fb-4415-962c-5502510db1fd.jpeg" />Plastic pollution is tackled in many ways, but we focus on Awareness as it is the first step to action. The power of people can change even the deeply penetrated collective habits. We will identify an area in terms of geography and demography, expose the people to the negative impacts of plastics on Natural environment. Campus of an educational institute, a township are some examples. For this, we will run strong campaigns with appealing content that forces people to act. Virtual /on ground events are used for this. To save time and for effective monitoring Social Media groups are formed. Next, we explain the strategy and develop consensus of all stockholders. In the beginning we will be moderately incentivising people to wean away from addiction to plastics and simultaneously make available the alternatives and educate them about the use of the same. Volunteers will be enrolled from within the target population and oriented to execute and monitor the progress. Suggested timelines are 9 to 12 months. Focus among SUPs is thin Plastic Carry bag. The program will be documented to capture the before and after scenarios. Support of local small businesses and Government officials will be enlisted.  
 Exemplary beginning with the considerable reduction in the use of Single Use Plastic - thin carry bags, will lay a strong foundation for the Plastic Free neighbourhood. Change in the plastic use habits among the residents, students, housewives, maids, office goers, senior citizens, local businesses, the members of the RWA, local government officials and peoples representatives. With the people accepting the use of alternative substitutes for the plastic carry bag, supporting mechanisms to ensure the market availability is put in place. Creating a highly motivated team of volunteers who are sensitive to the Plastics issue, continue the good work in the community. The way people lead their lives and celebrate festivities moves towards eco-friendly lifestyles. Focus will be extended beyond carry bags to different Single Use Items. Students in the community engage in periodical SUP contests and receive prizes. Efforts will be made to promote the cause in social and mainstream media for enhanced outreach. Feedback from covered population will be gathered, strategy refined to increase effectiveness and smoothen the bottlenecks. A template based solution to the SUP threat will be developed and shared with people wanting to take up similar initiatives. Proper plastic disposal ways are put in place. https://youtu.be/HDLVYDGa01c
