Project Details

In 2015, we got the opportunity to work on a project for Srujan, an NGO working for the uplift of the ‘Kolam’ tribal community in Yavatmal. Srujan works on helping the local community utilize local resources to make a living. They also work on various social and health issues. The organization has residential quarters, an office, a training hall, and guest rooms. Apart from these, the organization owns about 70 acres of farmland. The area faces an average of 10-12 hours of power cuts daily.

We modified the power system there to create a solar hub. Everything on the premises is now solar-operated. We provided ceiling fans, lights for all the rooms, and street lights for the premises. Even computers and mobile phones are now charged using solar power. Apart from these, we installed solar-operated surveillance cameras on the site. We also installed 2 solar water pumps, 5 hp each, one for the premises, and one for the agricultural land.

Since its inception in the late 1990s, Srujan has tackled important issues with empathy and kindness, assuring countless people a life of dignity. We hope that our work has aided their endeavours and been as much a source of happiness and comfort to them as it has been to us.
