Rizvi College of Engineering marked Energy Conservation Day on Monday, February 12, 2024 at 10:30 am in collaboration with Help Yourself Foundation.
Calling upon the youth to take positive action towards energy conservation, the college embarked to raise awareness not only amongst students but the society at large, through a campaign.
Student volunteers came forward as Environment Warriors who went around in the neighbouring societies and shops talking to them about the importance of Energy Conservation. They also shared the vision of turning off lights and fans for 5 minutes between 12:30 p.m. to 12:35 p.m. to save energy and contribute towards protecting mother nature’s precious natural resources. The community members appreciated the efforts of Rizvi College of Engineering and willingly participated in the noble cause.

It was a powerful medium to raise awareness about the harmful effects of smoking.

The Help Yourself Foundation wishes that the impact of this street play will continue to resonate within the community, inspiring positive change and promoting a smoke free society – A TOBACCO FREE ZONE.
