About Us

Forengers emerged out of a simple idea to plant one sapling per week. With this philosophy, we hosted an event on social media to invite anyone who was interested and saw a good turnout. And it has grown ever since, now we host cleanliness drives along with plantation campaigns. Each sapling we plant is tagged, covered with a shed of bamboo and cloth, watered 4 times a week and tracked for growth. We ensure that every sapling survives the next monsoon season so that it can survive the later sta Forengers emerged out of a simple idea to plant one sapling per week.

Each sapling we plant is tagged, covered with a shed of bamboo and cloth, watered 4 times a week and tracked for growth. We ensure that every sapling survives the next monsoon season so that it can survive the later stages on its own. Moreover, the garbage we collect is disposed to composting facilities or recycling centers based on the nature of waste ensuring minimum impact. We want to shift the focus of masses from mere concern to action. A lot is being shared by people in classrooms, social media platforms, etc but we aim to provide our community a platform where they can actually make an impact. ...[[showFullText ?

I have often asked myself the question, "What is our duty towards Mother Nature?" I believe most of us know the right answer. But the real question is, "Are we doing enough?" Forengers was born when some of us realized that waiting for somebody else to bring about a change will take forever. We call her Mother Earth for a reason, and at Forengers we make sure that she gets all the love, respect and care she deserves.

Forengers is like a mission for me. Through these weekly drives, I hope to do my bit against the Climate change crisis. Working from one event to other, I have learned more about the planet than classrooms could ever teach me. Moreover, the satisfaction after planting saplings and seeing them grow is something which cannot be expressed in words. I want this to become a movement to save our planet from imminent danger of climate change.

Forengers is currently my happy place. I feel connected to it in more ways because I have been part of the journey from the start. It gives me a sense of satisfaction to actually go out and make the change that we all talk about at length. After spending every Sunday with Forengers, I often feel at peace knowing that I am committed to do my bit to make the world a better place.
