#ReclaimTemples is an aspiration, an objective and a movement to revive and rebuild the ancestral Heritage monuments of Bharat.
More than 2 lakh Heritage monuments now lie in ruins and abandoned across Bharat. Many are in their last stages of decay, many have been lost to vandalism, heritage thieves and also encroachment.
We will be forming Heritage teams in all districts across Bharat and making Heritage conservation a popular movement to Reclaim our Heritage and Culture. We have already formed teams in Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Telengana. However to push the activities we need resources to meet expenses of our volunteers and also the project.
We are looking to appoint full time volunteers in all districts in above mentioned states in year 2018-19. The volunteers will be visiting the Heritage sites and coordinating the activities on ground. There is a minimum commitment we need to make to our volunteers on ground. Hence we started this fundraiser.
We are also looking to provide grants to citizen and student groups who are working on conservation projects. Many of these groups are severely short of resources and support and are approaching us for assistance.
We are also providing scholarship to nurture intellectualism and research on Indology. Also awareness videos are being made to spread the history and status of our Heritage monuments and the need for conservation.
This is our budget for activities for year 2018-19. Resources will help us accelerate the activities and make targeted interventions wherever required in interest of the goals outlined. We believe that we can make a difference on ground with your support and revive our Heritage and Pride.
