vtsbayarea VTSEVA Bay Area volunteers recently came together for an impactful environmental service initiative, dedicating their time and effort to cleaning up trash along a creek in Milpitas, California. By carefully removing litter, debris, and waste that had accumulated in the natural area, the volunteers demonstrated their strong commitment to protecting local ecosystems and promoting a cleaner, healthier environment for the community. This effort not only enhanced the beauty and safety of the creek but also raised awareness about the importance of environmental stewardship and collective responsibility. Through their hard work and teamwork, VTSEVA Bay Area volunteers continue to inspire others to take action and contribute positively to the preservation of natural spaces.

The VT Seva Maryland team successfully conducted a Thermal Energy workshop on October 12th at the Urbana Regional Library. Anwesha Parida - Youthleader of the Maryland VTSeva Branch lead the event, which took place from 1:00 pm to 2:45 pm. During the workshop, participants learned about the fundamentals of thermal energy and its applications in cardboard ovens. The attendees then engaged in a hands-on activity, creating their own cardboard ovens using step-by-step instructions and provided materials. The event provided an excellent opportunity for the organizers to develop essential skills such as confidence, responsibility, and communication. The interactive nature of the workshop kept the kids engaged and focused throughout. The event's success was largely due to the support of dedicated volunteers. Special thanks to Aarushi Shrivastava, Aryan Shriramoju, Nirvi Bijjala, Chetan Sai Kankanala, Akansha Subramaniam, Ms. Sandhya, Ms. Deepa, and Ms. Sobana Vasudevan for their valuable contributions.

VT SEVA Maryland Participated in the Winter Coat and Clothing Giveaway. VT Seva Maryland once again partner with wonderful volunteers of the Child Advocacy Center for their annual Children’s Clothing Giveaway. Inika Keranahalli Youth leader of the Maryland VTSeva Branch lead the event, which took place on October 18th from 8:00 am to 12 pm at West Frederick Middle School. Here is a small write up about the event from Inika. We are very thankful we got a very good opportunity to volunteer and help people in need during this clothing drive. All the volunteers of VT seva Maryland helped to sort the clothes by size and type, then arrange them neatly on the tables and racks. It was a bit of hard work at first because there were so many donations, but it felt good to see everything organized and ready for families who came in. When people arrived to pick out coats and clothes, We helped them find the right sizes and made sure everyone got something warm for winter. Seeing their smiles and hearing their thank-yous made me feel proud and happy that I could make a small difference. It was a great experience that taught me how teamwork and kindness can really help others. The event's success was largely due to the support of dedicated volunteers. Special thanks to My mom Ms. Shwetha and Ms. Sobana Vasudevan for their valuable contributions. Also to our volunteers Mahati Konduri, Bhavya Y, Anwesha Parida,Arjun C. A very special thanks to Abhinav Komperla who helped collect the clothes for this event.

Kudos to Parnavee for successfully leading the Summer Buddies Reading Camp for over four weeks! The sessions were filled with reading, storytelling, discovery, and plenty of laughter. Through this camp, Parnavee also raised funds to support the education of visually challenged children. The program helped students strengthen their comprehension skills and grow into more confident, enthusiastic readers.
