Cleanliness Drive at Sector 31 Noida – World Environment Day
A Park cleaned by Helping Brainz and the Children of Nithari: This is how we celebrated World Environment Day (though it was yesterday)
They’re God on earth. Yes in the career of Helping Brainz, we have never surfaced such an energy, which we saw in young KIDS aged between 5 to 12, who shook hands with us in a cleanliness drive orchestrated by Helping Brainz, facilitated by Gram Pradhan Nithari Vimlesh Sharma and SADRAG NGO.
We together cleaned a land, which can be easily used as a park/garden however which is being used a garbage dump by the local residents, which is indirectly spreading epidemics. Though not complete however a section of the park was cleaned by the kids and volunteers. The activity aimed in creating change-making ideologies among the young ignited minds of Nithari (kids), which exactly synchronized according to the plan. Kids and volunteers cleaned around 22 trolley-vans full of garbage and became instrumental in bringing cleanliness in the park. The caretakers of the park (so called gardeners)/ and the local residents living in the surroundings just ‘gaped’ at the kids and volunteers, after they saw the untapped energy among the kids. Though the gardeners showed initial interest and they stepped back after churning their brooms for few minutes, however the kids and the Helping Brainz volunteers didn’t step back after the completion of the tasks assigned to them by their will.
This is an activity which the government is supposed to do, Helping Brainz could have approached the government for the same, however Helping Brainz took a U-turn by first involving kids, because they are tomorrow’s change-makers, HelpingBrainz want them to be tomorrow’s environmentalist the messengers of cleanliness , HelpingBrainz dream of a beautiful Nithari through them. In next few days the park would be cleaned using machines under the supervision of Gram Pradhan Nithari on 13th June, the children and volunteers from Helping Brainz would be planting samplings in the park.
The drive started with a motivational and informative session by Jayanthi Ma’am ( Jayanthi Iyengar ) who addressed the kids and the Helping Brainz team-members about the need of a clean environment. Thereafter we distributed the gloves and masks (children were really overwhelmed after wearing them, as if they became doctors ), then the real game started, 38 children from Nithari and a dozen of Helping Brainz team-members/volunteers began an activity which even the Government weren’t doing for long, though it was their cup of tea.
The team consisted of 38 young ignited minds from SADRAG (NGO), Poonam Ma’am and Santosh Ma’am from SADRAG (NGO), Vikky Sharma (Associate of Gram Pradhan Nithari),Samyak Jain from AIESEC and Suchaya Chaiworn ( AIESEC-HelpingBrainz Intern for Environmental Campaigns from Thailand) and gardeners from Nithari village.
The entire event was led by Shally Arora ( Project Leader, Environmental and Elderly Care Campaigns ) and Shubhangi Srivastava (Project Leader, Women Empowerment Campaigns), also present were Kumar Madhuraj and Gitanshu Khurana (Project Leader, Rural and Community Development Initiatives), Pratik Bishen (Project Leader, Women Empowerment Campaigns), Shibin Varghese ( Project Leader, Environmental and Elderly Care Campaigns ), Pankaj Jha and Jyoti Mehta ( Helping Brainz Volunteers ) and Yedhu.
Helping Brainz was happy with a fact that these underpriviledged kids chanted the same slogan throughout that ‘they need their environment clean’, which is a gift by Helping Brainz to the environment.
Identity Drive at Nithari
I think every person has their own identity and beauty. Everyone being different is what is really beautiful. If we were all the same, it would be boring, – a famous quote by – Tila Tequila.
Though the sun was scorching at it’s best, at 41 degree Celsius, Helping Brainz team-members didn’t step back in their mission to create an identity for those who are even clueless about their date of birth/birth place.
Helping Brainz in coordination with the gram panchayat Nithari, helped the government, on 31st May 2015, by visiting the darkened and untouched slums located in the outskirts of Nithari Village and sector 31 Noida, gathering information (personal information) from about 200 residents (majority of them residing in the slums). These people don’t possess any id proofs (no ration cards, Aadhar cards, voter id cards etc) nor do they have any clue about their date of birth, in a nutshell they don’t know anything about their identity. Collated information would be validated and transferred to the District Magistrate via Gram Pradhan Nithari Shri Vimlesh Sharma. Once it gets vetted by the DM, then we would be facilitating identity registration drive (Aadhar Card and Ration Card) in coordination with the BLOs of Noida, at Noida Sector 31 – Government School.
Why we did this campaign:
An identity proof speaks about a person’s identity. Majority of the people living in the underpriviledged areas of India, doesn’t have any identity proof to claim their identity and they became a tool for most of the illegal activities and social menaces sponsored by the priviledged class of the society, priviledged class which includes the political mafias, local goons etc . Also, some corrupted politicians use them while elections to enhance the count of votes by luring them with short-time money.
These people cannot even apply for a job without since they don’t have an identity proof, thus the self-development process becomes stagnant resulting in poverty and unemployment.

Swachta Vriksharopan Abhiyan ( Cleanliness Drive) – Nithari – April 11 2015
We cleaned the Government School in Nithari on April 11, 2015
- FLASHBACK!
On 5th April Sunday afternoon, when I visited to Nithari Village, to supervise an educational counselling, conducted by Somi (Project Head, Internal Learning and Educational Counselling, HelpingBrainz.Org), me and Vimlesh Aunty walked through the silent verandahs of the lonely government school of Nithari, feeling the naturalism where the underpriviledged children undergo their elementary education, feeling disappointed after seeing the stagnant drainage systems and mosquito generating ponds, uncleansed classrooms/assembly ground/gardens, which the so called government ‘servants’ are not interested to clean upon.
I felt the helplessness of a child to express his right for sanitation, cleanliness and hygiene in the silent school. ‘How can a child study in such an environment’? I witnessed a lady village head’s urge for clean environment, however also understood the lack of cooperation of the government officials.
When I heard Vimlesh Aunty, requesting someone to clean the school, I stopped her and said ‘HelpingBrainz will clean this school for you’, I mentioned to her that, ‘it’s my wish to have my little siblings learn in a clean environment, though their teachers to be honest don’t want’.
- THE GAMES HERE!
I immediately telephoned, my friend Swati (VP, Environmental & Elderly Care Projects – HelpingBrainz.Org) – to design the programme, Abhinav Vikash (Abhinav works for HCLT Foundations, he’s one whose heart beats for the community equally) and Purnoor (Our designing spearhead) and we fixed the event (Cleanliness Drive) in 10 mins, and gave heartwarming confirmation to the village-head to support her in this mission to clean the school.

An educated man can #makeadifference.
To bridge two inhabited lands, we need a capable architect, however we need a coterie of educated human beings to traverse a country from darkness to enlightenment.

Around 20 smart ladies ages between 15 to 60 attended the programme held at the panchayat bhawan, Nithari. Nithari gram pradhan Shri Vimlesh Sharma inaugurated the event.

Next Sunday afternoon we would have the second part of the event.
Experience Sharing Congress at an American Multi National Company, Gurgaon
Experience is the best teacher, is it ?
Helping Brainz today conducted an ‘experience sharing congress’ at an American Multi National Company in Gurgaon. Today’s experience congress focused on women empowerment and the programme was conducted on the account of a Week Long International Women’s Day Celebrations held organized by the Women-Interest-Network of the Organization wherein 4 women from 4 different walks of life shared their stunning experiences on how they came out of the firewalls and became a changemaker, how they’re motivating 1000s around them to become a changemaker.
Women who stole the show were,
- Saumya Kulreshtha, a changemaker, who empowers and motivates many through her blog and poetry skills and also who encourages people to ‘communicate their expressions’ (Saumya and Helping Brainz shares a common understanding to the common-public that ‘communication’ can even cure cancer, the most dreadful, so why can’t we use the same for human empowerment!)
- Vimlesh Sharma Ma’am, the visionary gram pradhan of Nithari Village (who changed the design of Nithari),
Mona Chauhan, an entrepreneur, a leader, a changemaker who changed the life of 300+ underprivileged women of rural Noida, last however not the least,
Tulsi – just in Class 8th and a Bal Panchayat General Secretary, environmentalist, who cleaned MadanPur Khadar area, encourages 100s of young lads of Nithari to walk on the path of development.
Experience Sharing Congresses are a powerful tool Helping Brainz is conducting for the past 2 years for empowering women, re-programming and debugging human brains (human mentality).
Helping Brainz wants to thank everyone who contributed selflessly for this big, life changing happening! A women is the mother of all evolution, behind every happening we’ve a women, let’s respect this incarnation. Let’s be human to her.
