Volunteer for a Better India’s Mumbai week starts from tomorrow. Railway station cleanups, traffic management, and medical camps seek participation.

Starting tomorrow, you can quit cribbing about the deteriorating state of the city and actually do something about it. The Volunteer for a Better India initiative is starting its Mumbai week tomorrow onwards, and you can volunteer to clean up railway stations, learn and help in traffic management, participate in patriotic hour, or help at medical camps in slums. This is a social initiative by the Art of Living Foundation.

“Between February 10 and 20, several activities around the city will be initiated,” the organisers say. “A diversified choice is given to people, so that they can easily participate in the activities of their interest.”

If you want to participate, you can choose from these activities:
