Reap Benefit strives to be a platform that inspires youth to become action-based citizen champions called Solve Ninjas. Our mission is to activate solve ninjas in every community across India to tackle local civic and environmental problems using local data, local solutions, and local campaigns.
We have partnered with Surf Excel with the vision of saving 60 million liters of water by engaging 5,000 solve ninjas across the country in a short period of 3 months.
Play4good is a Pan-India whats app-based water-saving event for school children. As part of this, the child goes through an automated WhatsApp flow which has two levels of water-saving challenges, which they have to complete and submit their action to us through WhatsApp. As an outcome, two things happen:
Students save a few 100's of liters of water through their effort within their household.
Students would receive some exciting rewards based on their efforts.
To participate you have to save this number "8095500118" on your phone to Reap Benefit and send "p4g" as a message to this number in WhatsApp to get started.
