Nonprofit Organization Management - Mumbai, Maharashtra, India
We are a 70-year-old student-run organization that is actively engaged in the upliftment of underprivileged individuals and organisation of sustainability-focused events.The organization is headed by Director, Brother Vivian Almeida and run by an Executive Committee comprising of 4 students. Our pursuit to uphold our motto, "Where goodwill meets Opportunity", is exercised through the following six projects. Project Care Kids consists of weekly visits to conduct sessions with disadvantaged children to aid their overall development as well as to cover topics which are not covered in their usual school syllabus. Rural Camp is a ten-day camp held in a village with 50 volunteers who engage in manual work, interact with the villagers and organize social events such as a "mela" for the children of the village. Project Paint and Excursions targets dilapidated or rundown schools, orphanages, old age homes and jails to brighten their interiors by painting them to create a more positive space. Blood Donation Drives are conducted twice a year with more than 400 donors in each drive. Project Sustain works with the aim to encourage sustainability across various SSL and other college activities and finally, Workshops is a project where a variety of experienced resource persons from different fields conduct skill enhancing sessions for the students of our college. This year, with the unfortunate onslaught of Covid-19 pandemic, the SSL had to modify its modus operandi. We conduct various online workshops, webinars, awareness drives through our social media handles. We have mobilized our community and reached out to the vulnerable through collaborations with various NGOs that help provide for them. Our most exciting collaboration so far has been our partnership with UNICEF India.
