In a collaborative drive to ensure road safety, Tapas Foundation along with Confederation of Indian
Industry(CII), Young Indians & Yi Bhopal conducted a Road Safety Awareness Campaign in Bhopal,
Madhya Pradesh. We inaugurated the campaign by taking over the road through a Bike Rally where 40
riders came along in their gear and glory to spread the message of road safety. We collaborated with
Bhopal Riders Community for the rally.

With the support of IEHE NSS Bhopal, we performed 10 street plays on road safety in Bhopal city and
Adampur Chhawani. Street play has always been a great medium for us to connect with the public. As a
part of the campaign, we created awareness about sensible honking in and near 15 hospital premises in
Bhopal. We also hosted an awareness session for ISBT bus and highway truck drivers on various safety
measures that they should always follow.

Team Tapas also engaged with children during the campaign but on a more colourful note – through
drawing and quiz competitions. We covered 15 schools in the city and screened a short film – Chota Cop
for the students which is based on road safety. With Foster For Furrballs, an organisation working for
animal welfare, we ensured the safety of stray cattle who are often the victims of road accidents,
especially during the night. We did a radium strip drive to cover their horns with neon reflective bands
which will make them visible during the night and protect them from any unforeseen accidents.
It was a very fulfilling and effective campaign where we came together to ensure road safety. We want
to thank our collaborative partners – We Care, Young Indians Bhopal, Bhopal Riders Community, IEHE
NSS Bhopal, Foster For Furrballs and Mayank Kapoor for their generous contribution that made this
campaign a great success.

Freedom Through Education

Less than half of India’s children between the age 6 and 14 go to school. Keeping the importance of education in mind, Tapas Foundation recently collaborated as a Campaign Partner with P&G(Procter & Gamble) under their CSR programme P&G Shiksha with Round Table India and BRT-257 for their initiative called ‘FREEDOM THROUGH EDUCATION’ under which they successfully constructed a school in Dahod, Mandideep, Madhya Pradesh on 23rd December, 2021. With a vision of educating kids, Tapas Foundation is always willing to ensure the benefits of education to be accessible to everyone.

Tapas X Unicharm

Tapas foundation has always had a vision of supporting and talking about issues that are a taboo in India. There are over 355 million menstruating women and girls in India,28 yet millions of women across the country still face significant barriers to comfortable and dignified experience with menstrual health.

Tapas x Round Table x BRT- 257

At Tapas foundation, we believe that ‘awareness is the first step to social reform’. In keeping with this, on November 22 and 23, Tapas foundation in collaboration with Round Table India & BRT-257, organised a social awareness campaign.

People's movement- Dilli ka campaign

Driven by our selfish gains and the want for more and more comfort, we are putting nature into discomfort. The rampant deforestation all over the world is making the earth uninhabitable for one and all. READ MORE

Hunger in India

The coronavirus pandemic has intensified the problems that were already plaguing the lives of those living under extreme circumstances. One such community was reached out to by Tapas team, as part of the Hunger in India campaign. Living in makeshift homes, these families have been struggling to make ends meet, and do odd jobs as scrap collectors to manage a single meal. They often have to rely on begging or getting meals from temples.

Project Thirst

The rising water crisis in the country has been a much talked about issue in recent years, and rightly so. Despite housing over 1.3 billion people, India has only 4% of the world’s fresh water. And this too is fast depletion due to faulty usage and distribution and the ever increasing urbanization at the cost of natural water sources… READ MORE

Missing Padyatra

While child trafficking is a rampant crime across India, the conversation and the level of awareness around it is still limited.

Further complicated by the dearth of data on the occurrence of this crime, the issue does not get its due attention and thousands of children find themselves lost in the suffocating world of human trafficking… READ MORE

Let’s plant the world better

We take so much from the environment, it only makes sense for us to give back in equal or increased measures.

In February 2020, Ramboll India decided to give back through the medium of a plantation-driven Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) campaign. “Let’s Plan(t) the World Better” was an environmental CSR campaign curated by Tapas Foundation under the sponsorship of Ramboll India… READ MORE

Village adoption in Bhopal with CII and Young Indians

Rural development is the basis of nation building. No country can call itself truly developed if its villages are lacking basic necessities and infrastructure. What is needed then is focus on the development of tier 2 and tier 3 cities. This is the maxim of how tapas Foundation works, to bring reform from a grassroot level… READ MORE 

Let’s start from education

In recent years, several major announcements have been made for improving the state of education in our country. The government has vowed to increase expenditure on and quality of education, ensure that no one is denied education due to economic backwardness and poverty, and to make the right to education a fundamental right for all children in the age group 6-14. Yet, according to UNICEF, 29 percent of girls and boys drop out of school before completing the full cycle of elementary education, most belonging to the most marginalized communities… READ MORE

Plastic - the right approach

While the invention of plastic was nothing short of a ‘Gift from the Gods’ for mankind, that very plastic has now become a source of major concern for all life on earth.

Plastic is mostly non-biodegradable, meaning that it never fully breaks down into nature, instead stays in nature for years in the form of minute microplastics… READ MORE
