Please put pre-loved and not unwanted items in the bank

The pre-loved bank is centered around the idea of repurposing and reusing pre-loved items, including toys, books, and stationary. Drop points will be strategically placed across the city, including popular areas like Whitefield, Malleswaram, Hennur, and more. These drop points will serve as convenient locations where people can contribute their pre-loved items, knowing that they will be repurposed to bring joy to those less fortunate.

No prayer goes to waste

The temple authorities made a notable change to shift from plastic to stainless steel. All plastic covers and plates have been replaced with their more sustainable counterparts, while even the flower offerings are now presented in small butti (baskets) instead of plastic covers. The wet waste generated, such as flowers and leaves, will be meticulously composted, contributing to a significant reduction in overall waste.
