The 'Save Fuel' Activity at Wakad!

30-06-2010
The day when some of the SCIT Earth Warriors assembled for a cause and made a difference!

With about 75 volunteers, we went to the Wakad Bridge signals, and spread the light. We covered almost every segment of the road population, right from the people travelling in posh BMWs & Volkswagens, to the autowallahs and the truck drivers. We requested them to switch off their engines on red lights and when stuck in traffic jams.

The unbounded enthusiasm and passion that the students reflected helped commuters realize their responsibilities of saving the Mother Earth!

Enough of words... A glimpse of the activity will help you relate to it in a better manner.

The Volunteer Team


Ready to do wonders


At Wakad











Posters on display


Some had already switched off their engines


While to get them turned off for some others was an ordeal in itself


An Earth Warrior at WORK


Some already knew about the cause


While some on a little persuasion, willingly contributed


The Signature Campaign


Smiles all around


Jubilating, after returning to the college


What did we get in return?

Some smiles and nods, some appreciation, some pats on our back, but most importantly, the immense satisfaction of contributing to a good cause.

This is the strength of SCIT- its unanimity! Let's get together, with all our might, to bring about a change for the betterment of this world, however small it may be.

Rock on, Earth Warriors!

  3. Hey guys
    Obviously its good to see a socially responsible junior batch. Keep up the good work and above all, have loads of fun in all you do. The USP of SCIT students has always been managing all things, we have never neglected fun for responsibilities(though some times the opp has surely happened), so chill and enjoy your time.....
