Volunteering Opportunities During the Rainy Season

If you are considering volunteering, now is an excellent time to get involved. The rainy season has arrived, bringing with it a plethora of green activities. These activities range from seed ball making to plantation drives and more. The rains provide the perfect conditions for planting and nurturing new life, making it an ideal time for environmental initiatives.

This season also coincides with the re-opening of schools. As children return to their classrooms, there are numerous advocacy sessions focused on cleanliness, garbage management and biodiversity. These sessions are crucial for educating the younger generation about the importance of maintaining a clean and green environment. Various NGOs, community services and even common citizens organize these sessions, making it a collaborative effort.

There is a wide array of volunteering activities planned by different organizations. From planting trees to conducting cleanliness drives, there is something for everyone. Although the rains might limit the number of clean up drives we can conduct, they offer a unique opportunity to engage in other green activities. For instance, one can start composting at home and spread awareness about its benefits. Composting not only reduces waste but also enriches the soil, making it a win-win situation for both, you and the environment.

One of the exciting activities is waste-negative treks. The rainy season is perfect for trekking, and we encourage volunteers to carry an extra bag to collect plastics and other waste they encounter along the way. This small act can significantly contribute to creating a cleaner and safer environment for everyone. By participating in these treks, one can not only enjoy the beauty of nature but also play a part in preserving it.

The rainy season offers a multitude of opportunities for volunteering. This is a great time to get involved and make a positive impact on the environment.
