Our Journey

In our journey of 10 years, we have following achievements: 

  • Clients & Partners: 27 clients (17 corporates, 5 Govt., 4 NGOs) and 25 partners. 
  • Target Reach: Through our outreach programmes we have reached out to more than 5000 people clocking 25000 hours.
  • Projects:  Over the past decade, we have successfully completed 38 projects. Notably, we planted 75,000 saplings across various sites, contributing to reforestation and biodiversity enhancement efforts. 
  • Butterfly Habitats: So far we developed 29 butterfly zones in 10 States. Butterfly habitats (9), gardens (14), Parks (6).  
  • Employee Engagement Programmes: We conducted over 132 programmes in  15 cities with 5,000 participants contributing approximately 25,000 hours of service. Together, we’ve planted 7,000 plants including trees, butterfly-attracting species, and saplings, all aimed at enhancing local biodiversity. Also collected 2.5 tons of waste—plastics, glass, thermocol, and more—showing that collective effort makes a big difference.  
  • Lake Rehabilitation Project:  We restored two lakes in Hyderabad Nizampet Lake and Achari Kunta lake. This lake rehabilitation works  largely revolve around enhancing lake ecology through plantation, biodiversity surveys, community engagement and education.
  • Nature based Mobile Apps:  We developed 5 innovative apps like iButterflies, iTrees, iNaturewatch Birds, eForestrails-SGNP, and eForestrails-Karnala, providing valuable resources for nature enthusiasts and promoting environmental education.   
  • Wildlife Training Workshops:  We conducted three major workshops aimed at equipping forest department personnel with the necessary skills and knowledge for wildlife conservation and management.
  • Seven Publications:  Our contributions to environmental literature include the first Field Guide on Indian Moths by Dr. Shubhalaxmi, a Field Guide on Greater Mangroves for United Way Mumbai, and the Field Guide to Wildflowers of Sanjay Gandhi National Park (printing to be done by forest department), with plans for a comprehensive guide on the Insects of India. 
  •  Outdoor Nature Exhibition and  Signage Development:  We developed educational exhibits and signage on birds, butterflies, insects, reptiles and trees for prominent locations such as Govardhan Eco-village, Ambivli Biodiversity Park, Sanjay Gandhi National Park, and the Nizampet and Achari Kunta lakes in Hyderabad, enhancing public engagement and environmental awareness.
