Respected Mr. Vohra,
Our team had approached you regarding use of Arth Logs in Holika Dehan, and you very kind to show your interest about the Idea. We feel delighted to have made a mark in this journey towards Pollution-free and well-managed India.
What is our Mission?
On average, every year, 16.4 million trees are cut down in India for the cause of cremation. Also every day 1.6 lac tonnes of cow dung is wasted and thrown into rivers causing water pollution.
Arth Logs made from waste cow dung saves 2 trees per cremation. We aim to provide more jobs in this sector by completely diversifying the way cremations are carried out. We aim to provide sustainable pathways to gaushalas so that they have a stable income source and the Gaushalas’s assets go to the best use. With innovation, passion, and vision all working in hand, we would make sure the drive towards a world where sustainable and eco-friendly solutions to deep-rooted problems exist and are accepted never loses its flame.
What Do We Do?
We function as the connecting link between Gaushalas and normal Consuming Public. We have Designed and Identified Products that can be made from Cow-Dung, like Clocks, Dhoops, Diyas, Sculptures and provided Gaushalas with machines to make the products and a platform to sell them, and brought direct Customers to them. We have associated with Madhubani Artisans from Bihar and provided them employment by giving them orders to decorate our clocks, sculptures.
We carried out a campaign during Diwali last year to sell Gaumaya Diyas and sold 5 Lakh Diyas. All our customers have provided us very comforting and positive feedback. This gave us a strong head start to carry this initiative further. We are carrying Holika Dehan Campaign this year to celebrate eco-friendly Holika Dehan all through Delhi-NCR.
It would be a great help to us if you can connect us with Presidents and secretaries of Societies in Delhi-NCR to connect with them and celebrate GREEN Holika Dehan in those societies.
Regards,
Team Arth
