On 8th December 2024, Byatarayanapura, Bengaluru, witnessed a remarkable transformation as part of an initiative led by Clean Up The Community in collaboration with students, volunteers, and BBMP officials. This inspiring clean-up drive brought together 16 enthusiastic students who worked tirelessly to rejuvenate the area by cleaning it and adding a vibrant touch of creativity through wall art.

The Clean-Up Drive
The event began at 8:00 AM with a clear mission: to tackle the garbage-laden area and give it a fresh start. Under the leadership of Shreya Shetty, founder of Clean Up The Community, the team executed a series of impactful activities:

  1. Garbage Removal: Volunteers cleaned up the entire area, leaving it spotless.
  2. Wall Whitewashing: A neglected wall was given a fresh coat of white paint to prepare it for transformation.
  3. Artistic Touch: Students and volunteers came together to paint the wall with beautiful, inspiring artwork, giving the area a new life.
