Aarna Foundation celebrated its Silver Jubilee week of Dadar Beach Clean-up drive on Sunday, 11th February 2018 . The campaign to save the Dadar/Prabhadevi beach is in its 25th week now and the team celebrated the day with a beautification activity at the beach. It started with painting of the walls around the beach with a message of “Swacch Bharat” in English, Hindi and Kannada languages, to spread the message of a cleaner Mumbai among the masses. The team also painted other social messages which will be helpful in bringing a positive change in the society.

 
Following the wall beautification was the beach clean-up by the team members and volunteers. The event was graced by renowned social activist, politician and fashion designer Ms. Shaina NC, who also heads the NGO “I Love Mumbai”. She extended her support to the team and expressed her desire of helping Aarna Foundation in its cleanliness project as she was happy to see the transformation of the Dadar beach.
