Warmth in the Wilderness: Nagarhole Blanket Drive

Get ready to dive into a heartwarming adventure! Our "Warmth in the Wilderness" project set out on a mission to spread joy and warmth to the incredible tribal community of Nagarhole. With a goal to wrap them in comfort, we proudly distributed over 150 cozy woolen blankets—because who doesn’t love a little extra warmth, especially in the wilderness?

Our journey took us deep into the lush landscapes of the Nagarhole Tiger Reserve, where we were greeted by the radiant smiles of the community. Each smile told a story of gratitude that made our hearts swell with happiness. The best part? It wasn’t just about the blankets! We embarked on a captivating cultural tour, where the locals warmly welcomed us into their world, showcasing their sustainable way of life. We marveled at their mud huts, learned how they skillfully source food and medicine from the forest, and discovered the sweet art of honey extraction. 🍯🌳

This eye-opening experience taught us so much about simplicity, resilience, and the beauty of living in harmony with nature. It reminded us of the importance of giving back and connecting with our roots.

As eager volunteers at the Rotaract Club of Bangalore Indiranagar (RCBI), we leave no stone unturned to #MAKEITMATTER. Together, we create magical moments that uplift our community and spread the joy of giving!
