Zaroorat !!

Wondering what this title is all about ??? Well its not related to any of my works but an initiative started to gift happiness  to the underprivileged.

I recently met Mellisa Pias of GreenYatra ,who is spreading the word about this wonderful event, and this is what she says....

Greenyatra had started his initiative of Zaroorat- A Need in association with one of India's largest chain of multiplexes theaters Fame Cinemas to set up collection boxes in all Fame Cinemas across Maharashtra between 22, December 2011 till 10th of January 2012. You can donate old Clothes, Toys, Books, Stationary, utensils or anything that can be happily used by needy people.... So kindly visit your nearby Fame Cinemas and Gift the happiness of someone's in this festive season because "Your old stuff can be someone's new Gift". Collected items will be collected, sorted, repaired, sewed, packed, transported and distributed to the rural areas & urban slums throughout India.

Our effort is to provide the necessity things to millions of poor and needy people facing great hardship and health risk due to lack of proper clothing and other basic things in far flung areas and urban slums of the country. We work on a premise that one man’s waste can be another man’s richness. It is not only possible, but realistically doable. 

For other collection centers apart from Fame Cinemas and more information kindly write us on: zaroorat@greenyatra.org or call us on 022 6588 6649/ 099675 38049.
