We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Simeio for their incredible collaboration with Bhumi's Eco Champs Program! Simeio's unwavering support and passion have been instrumental in building a sense of community and inspiring students and staff alike to champion environmental stewardship. In 2023-24, this partnership empowered 640 students across 6 schools, equipping them with vital knowledge on waste management, composting, gardening, sustainable practices, and more. Adding a creative touch, Simeio volunteers and students transformed school spaces with vibrant, eco-themed murals. These beautiful artworks not only enhanced the school environment but also served as a lasting reminder of our collective responsibility to care for our planet. Continuing this impactful journey, 1600 students across 6 schools in Bangalore are set to benefit from the Eco Champs Program this year. We are shaping a greener, more sustainable future by joining hands. 🎥 Watch the full video to see how we’re making a difference Nick Rowe Bhaskar Nagasai D Gururaj Bhat Ratish Panicker Adarsh Raghuram Pankaj Kumar Kaushik Bhojani, CISSP Deepak Singh Chaithanya Nayak Prahalathan K K Ramakrishnan Subramanian Shriram K Satheesh Ravi Navya Kethireddy Dibbojit Bose Sunil Kumar B Keerthana Nk #EcoChamps #Simeio #Sustainability #Gratitude #EnvironmentalAwareness #EmployeeEngagement #Bhumi

Meet Harishankar Krishnamurthi: Running for Change, Empowering the Future Harishankar’s running journey began in 2004 when he first discovered the world of marathons. Inspired by millions crossing the finish line, Harishankar was determined to do the same. What started as a personal goal soon grew into something much bigger. Over the past 20 years, Harishankar has connected with like-minded individuals, and together, they've built a vibrant running community in Chennai. Through their shared passion, lasting friendships have been formed, and the impact has been incredible. Now, Harishankar is running The Freshworks Chennai Marathon 2025, but with a deeper purpose — to raise funds for Bhumi. Every rupee raised will go toward providing education and opportunity for underprivileged children, helping them unlock their full potential. As Harishankar reflects, “There are so many children out there bursting with potential but lacking the resources to realize it. Whether it's attending school, joining a sports team, or having access to a nutritious meal, every contribution makes a difference.” Let’s support Harishankar as he runs for a cause that truly matters! How You Can Support: 📍Donate: Every contribution, no matter the size, plays a part in transforming lives. 📍Spread the Word: Share Harishankar’s story and encourage others to join the movement. 📌 Support Harishankar's journey here: bit.ly/harican4bhumi #RunForACause #FCM2025 #RunForBhumi #EducationForAll #InspireChange #CorporateSocialResponsibility #MarathonForImpact #Bhumi

Meet Shankar Balagoundan: From 5K Dreams to Empowering Generations For Shankar, leadership is more than managing programs—it's about managing oneself, body, and mind. Two years ago, his journey toward fitness and self-discipline began when he discovered Chennai Runners through Bhumi. Starting with the "Couch to 5K" program, he accomplished an incredible milestone—running 5km without stopping for the first time. In Shankar’s words: "The immediate changes in my body and the pride from my consistency inspired me to push further. After two months of training, I completed my first 10K with a great pace, and now I’m training for a half-marathon." But Shankar's journey isn’t just about fitness—it’s about giving back. Growing up in a challenging environment with limited resources, he understands the struggles many face in education. Today, through the Chennai Runners community, Shankar is raising funds for Bhumi to support underprivileged communities and empower the next generation with the opportunities he once lacked. Let’s Join Shankar in Creating Change—one step at a time! How You Can Support: 📍Donate: Your contribution can make education accessible to many. 📍Share: Spread this inspiring story and amplify the impact. 📌 Support Shankar's journey here: bit.ly/shankar4bhumi #RunForACause #FCM2025 #RunForBhumi #EducationForAll #InspireChange #ChennaiRunners #MarathonForImpact #Bhumi

🌟 Nurturing Young Minds Together with Ramana Vidyalaya! 🌟 At Bhumi, we believe in the power of collaboration to create transformative change. Over the past two years, we had the privilege of partnering with Ramana Vidyalaya to implement the HELO+ programme, taking Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) to the heart of education. Together, we: ✅ Empowered teachers through EPD (Educator Professional Development) sessions to reflect on their values, practice compassionate communication, and refine their moral compass. ✅ Facilitated engaging parent sessions to foster a supportive learning environment at home. ✅ Conducted baseline and end-line assessments to track progress and growth among students. ✅ Equipped the school with SEL materials, seamlessly integrated into classroom activities by class teachers. 💬 Here’s what the school had to say: 🧑🏫 "The EPD sessions gave teachers a space to reflect on their roles and values, enhancing their compassionate communication skills. This has been a guiding light for their practice." 📖 "The SEL lesson plans have been a valuable addition, and we’re already noticing improvements in children’s vocabulary, articulation, and awareness about mental health." 🌈 "Bhumi’s unwavering support has made SEL part of our daily conversations, enriching the way we nurture our students." A big shoutout to the Ramana Vidyalaya team for their dedication and trust in this journey. Together, we’re paving the way for a brighter, emotionally intelligent future! 🌟✨ #BhumiHELO #SELMatters #EducationForChange #Motivational #EmotionalIntelligence #RamanaVidyalaya
