He has executed the project is more than 33 schools in the last month, working with almost 20,000+ students. He aims to scale this number up to 100 schools soon.
“The kids have a lot of fun doing it. They play and learn as they dig the ground and collect pebbles and stones to add to the pit. Our focus is on schools to increase awareness. Kids are the best medium to bring about this change. I want to especially thank all the principals of the schools who have displayed unwavering support for the project. The kids proudly tell their parents about how they built this pit. We are hoping it will motivate their colonies and societies to do it too.”
