One of those inspiring moments in life is when
you meet a bunch of young people who strive to dream beyond the paycheck..
I am one of the fortunate few to know a few of
these revolutionary minds.. Destined to make change rather than being part of
the herd, I'm sure these few are part of the change that has the potential to revolutionize
the whole system.
In their early 20s , having an ambition to
bring about change is quite commendable and setting it up is a herculean task
and in spite of all the hurdles ,they have set up their organizations dedicated
to work toward the betterment of the whole of mankind.
Nihar
Parulekar , started an NGO with a vision for wildlife conservation back in 2011
, I remember him saying he dint find a lot of corporate interested in investing
in this cause , he spent from his own pocket to better the zoo premises , Now he has established his NGO in 5 major cities
across the nation and is looking to expand, with a body of over 3000 all over India
,A lot of awards and accolades have become quite regular for this 23 year old.
In spite of
all the successes ,these individuals don’t get carried away , each rescue is
special , every Sunday in spite of all their schedules, these youngsters parole
the zoo premises and help sustain the quality, they even have tie ups and take
care of animal protection and sometimes are responsible for new additions to
the zoo.
ARPF is a
full-fledged organization now, IT has a different squads like anti poaching, zoo
corps, green warriors etc that are highly active in rescue missions and conservation
of the environment. The organization is tied up with the forest department, it
was recently awarded for its services by STREET CAUSE , The founder Nihar
Parulekar has been given an earth award for his contribution , ARPF being his
brainchild.
