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.

Each one , Plant one (Gurgaon)

It is no secret that trees contribute to the environment over long periods of time by providing oxygen,  improving air quality, climate amelioration, conserving water, preserving soil, and supporting wildlife.  With so many benefits at its disposal plantation drives somewhat serve as an important factor to  combat many environmental issues like deforestation, erosion of soil, desertification in semi-arid areas,  global warming and hence enhancing the beauty and balance of the environment.  

Keeping the above mentioned benefits in mind Tapas Foundation recently decided to join hands with  team Hiltii India and India is us in order to plant 200 saplings at Rajkiya Varishth Madhyamik Vidyalay,  Islampur nearby Shani Mandir, Gurugram, Haryana.  

Firstly in order to impede the use of plastics, Three matkas along with Kulhads were arranged to serve  cold water to all the members on field.  

Carrying forward the motto #EachOnePlantOne , 150 employees from team hilti planted 200 saplings  with proper assistance and cooperation by members of Tapas Foundation and India is Us.  

Name tags of individual employees who planted the saplings were attached to the saplings in order to  differentiate them from the rest of the saplings respectively.  

After the planting of the saplings, all the employees were given seed pens, book marks along with  refreshment boxes individually.
