Beach cleanup drive on September 22
Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated with fervour across the
city but after the festivities are over it leaves the beautiful beaches
polluted with solid waste. To ensure that the beaches are brought back
to their original pristine state, Ken Foundation Society is organising
Vizag Coastal Cleanup drive on September 22 in collaboration with GVMC.
The
foundation has made a call to students, institutions and citizens to
come forward to clean the coastline. There is a registration fee of Rs.
10 to receive a participation certificate at the end of the programme.
Gloves, bags and other paraphernalia required for the clean up will be
provided to them.
The coast has been divided into
seven zones from Gokul Park to Rushikonda and teams will be divided to
target a particular zone. Call P. Santosh at 9885674949 or visit e-seva
centres, Laddu Gopal, Titan Showroom and RK Beach to register. Follow
Ken Foundation at www.facebook.com/ken.foundation
The drive will begin at 7 a.m.
