Youth For Parivarthan is a registered Non-Governmental and Non-Profit Organization which came to be founded on 3″ June, 2014.
The organization is one of the most active NGOs in Bengaluru which has been working towards ‘Swachh Bharat-Swachha Bengaluru’ from even before ‘Swachh Bharat’ became a household term. Apart from spot-fixes the organization also indulges in orphanage and old-age home visits, organizing drawing and other competitions for kids, organizing blood donation, health & dental check-up camps, awareness campaigns, RECYCLOTHON, voter awareness campaigns, traffic awareness campaigns, tree plantation drives, lake rejuvenation projects, etc.
Bengaluru, once renowned as the ‘Garden City of India’ was hitting global headlines in the year 2014 in a negative way and was being termed as ‘The Garbage City of India’.
For native Bangaloreans this was very hard to digest and it had turned out to be a burning issue. Most people sat back and complained that the authorities and the Government was not doing enough to tackle the issue but not many came forward to take the initiative towards finding effective solution towards tackling the issue at hand. That is when Mr.Amith Amarnath (Founder & President) discussed his idea of starting an organization to work towards the mission of ‘Clean Bengaluru’ with his friend Mr.Anup Gangur (Vice President). The idea was well supported by other peers Mr.Sanketh.S.(General Secretary), Mr.Rakesh Mahadimane (Treasurer) and Mr.Nishanth Rajkumar (Secretary) who also joined hands in bringing Youth For Parivarthan
Initially it was a Herculean task for the team to explain to the public as to what the team was up to as Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan was not launched yet.
The major boost to the organization happened when Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan was launched by our Hon’ble Prime Minister Sri.Narendra Modi on 2nd October 2014, after which Clean India Mission became a nationwide revolution and a household term. Ever since then, the organization has been receiving tremendous support from the public and the tribe has been growing. The youngest member of the organization is 7 years old and the eldest member of the organization is 86 years young. The organization has time and again proved that age is just a number and that a youthful heart is what determines whether a person is youth or not!
