🇮🇳 PRAYAS 2026 — The Journey Continues… 🇮🇳
This Independence Day was more than a celebration. It was a reminder of who we are, what we stand for, and why Prayas continues to grow. ❤️
On 15th August, the Prayas Youth Forum & Social Awareness Foundation – Prayas 2026 team came together at the Cultural Centre of Sinhgad College, Pune, for a meaningful celebration, interaction and planning session.
From celebrating Independence to discussing our next steps, the day was filled with energy, ideas, responsibility and the spirit of volunteering. 🇮🇳
🌱 What’s coming next?
🔹 Trekking Cleanliness & social responsibility initiatives
🔹 Tree plantation with 14 Trees Foundation 🌳
🔹 One Book, One Pen initiative during Ganesh Festival 📚🖊️
🔹 Registration and planning for PRAYAS 2027 volunteers
🔹 Strengthening the way we conduct the upcoming Prayas Volunteer Camp
🔹 Building a stronger, more responsible and active volunteer community
And there is something even more special…
PRAYAS 2026 is our 17th batch of volunteers! 🎉
From 2008 until today, Prayas has continued its journey with the same foundation volunteering, consistency, patience, dedication and the passion to create a positive impact.
17 batches are not just a number.
They represent years of trust, friendships, learning, service and thousands of small efforts that together created something much bigger.
To everyone who joined us today
Be proud. You are now part of this journey. ❤️
Your presence today is not just attendance. It is a commitment to carry the Prayas spirit forward.
And to all our Prayas pass-out volunteers…
Look at these photographs. Look at these steps. Look at this campus.
Many of you once sat at this very place, participated in activities, made friendships, learned, laughed and contributed.
Those memories may belong to the past, but your responsibility as a Prayas volunteer never expires.
Wherever you are today abroad or anywhere todayyou can still contribute.
You can guide a new volunteer.
You can support an activity.
You can bring a new idea.
You can sponsor an initiative.
You can simply show up when Prayas needs you.
Once a Prayas volunteer, always a Prayas volunteer. ❤️
