Calling all Puneri Junta : The Titli’s live in Pune !!
In the days of yore when great revolutions and movements happened, groups and communities of like minded people were formed to enthuse and stimulate the movement with dedication, life and vigor.
Ek Titli is one such desperate movement to change the air we breathe, the water we drink, what we see and hear.
A movement to bring harmony with nature by caring for the environment and like every movement and revolution communities are required, a body of passionate and like minded people that vibrates with a tremendously powerful energy called “we are the change”, and with this thought Ek Titli brings to you the inception of the “Pune chapter”.
The objective is to work together to create the change that we all want to see in this beautiful city, also known as the “Oxford of the East”.
To participate, please mail us your short bio to volunteer[at]ektitli.org giving reasons on how you as an individual, would like to contribute for a Greener and Cleaner Pune. You can also register at the Ek Titli – Pune Chapter. Click here if you don’t want to miss all the Discussion and Action.
