Pledge for a Green Diwali

Let's PLEDGE for a Green Diwali this season and experience the joy of giving with Milaap! Light up lives and not crackers!

You can be a part of this joy-giving by signing this petition. For every signature you add to this petition, Arc Finance is generous enough to lend Rs. 10 to us for the Solar Project. We are targetting at least 20,000 signatures so that we can raise at least Rs. 200,000 for the poor.

Diwali is the festival of lights which lays emphasis on sharing and giving as Lord Rama started this out to be. Let's do our bit towards spreading joy by joining the movement. Pledge today that you would not burn your money on loud and noisy crackers that do only harm to all. 

The Solar Lighting project is aimed at providing electricity to 1500 poor households in villages in West Bengal, that are off the power grids of this country. They rely on kerosene lamps for lighting after sun-set.

Save the money you would want to spend on crackers and contribute for this project and help light-up lives of these poor for life. Take this pledge today and join the mass movement supporting green diwali and joy of giving!

Celebrate your Diwali with Milaap, and this way you would contribute to your country in two ways - one is providing light to homes of the underprivileged and two, reducing air and noise pollution.

If you have signed, make your contribution for the project here! You can contribute as little as Rs. 100. Every rupee you contribute will be paid to you back once the borrower repays his/her money.

Share This Petition With As Many People You Can. Lets Make India Green This Diwali.
