Tyme 2 Serve

What we did

A log of our serve days, in the volunteers' own words. Real photos, no stand-ins.

Planting on the hillside

We planted saplings on a rain-soaked hillside, one hole at a time.

Feeding bowls for street birds

Birds plant our forests before we ever do. We set out feeding bowls to return the favour.

Umbrellas for the Bengaluru heat

Bengaluru's heat keeps breaking records. We bring umbrellas to the street vendors who work under it all day.

More saplings, more shade

We believe that true environmental care starts from the ground up. Through our continuous plantation drives, we are actively replacing concrete landscapes with living canopies that will protect, nurture, and cool our ecosystem for decades.

New Year kits for the street cleaners

New Year, new purpose. We handed out sanitizer, masks, gloves, and a nutrition bar to the sanitation workers who keep our streets clean.

Water bottles for everyday heroes

Steel water bottles for the people who keep the city moving: fuel attendants, sweepers, delivery riders, and fruit sellers. By replacing single-use plastics with safe, reusable steel, we are protecting their daily health and keeping our environment clean.

An education and awareness day

A day at a women's college: a tree-planting session, an awareness talk on civic responsibility, and a classroom full of students who stuck around long after the formal part ended.

Celebrating Together, Inspiring Lives

We celebrated our 1st Anniversary in 2021 at Muninagara with a truly inspiring group of physically challenged yet sharp-minded siblings. We spent a wonderful day connecting, providing entertainment, and sharing a specially prepared meal.

Sharing Essentials, Spreading Smiles

We organized a community donation drive to collect unused clothes, books, toys, shoes, and stationery from residents of a gated community. The collected items were thoughtfully distributed to underprivileged children, bringing them essential support, happiness, and hope.

Two hours. That's the ask.

Most of our volunteers started with one serve day. Come once, see how it works, decide from there.
