BITS.aid
By Ashish Garg ('97 Instru)
Sudip Dutta is alike most of us BITSians. Loves to laccha, gussed tons of classes at BITS and has done his time outside the Meera Bhavan gate.
However, as a founding member of BITS.aid he wants us to “Think, Feel and Act” and here’s how.
BITS.aid is a community to AID all BITSian volunteering activities. It
is the global face of BITS volunteering program. The vision of BITS.aid
is to be a strong Alumni Volunteering Community leveraging the BITS
Pilani alumni network and volunteering activities through excellent
management.
Sudip saw that
somewhere deep within, many of us have the urge to do something that
would change the world but we don’t know how to go about doing
it. That is the objective of BITS.aid - to provide BITSians an
interface to interact with each other in an efficient way to take small
steps together and make a big impact.
If you want to start a community project, BITS.aid aims at helping you by:
- Guiding you through new initiatives.
- Shaping new projects from ground up.
- Manage your activities with collective knowledge.
- Provide a robust platform for project leaders in reaching out to the BITSAA network to locate and enroll volunteers.
If you would like to volunteer for BITSAA projects, BITS.aid can help you by:
- Providing information about ongoing projects in your geographical area through our database.
- Finding volunteering activities that you may be interested in.
- Get in touch with other BITSian volunteers in your area.
BITS.aid is already
working with five different BITSAA projects such as BITSunami at BITSAA
Chennai, Swadheen/Vigyan Ashram in New York and India, the Future Focus
Foundation at Bhubaneswar.
