As the Jal movement founder notes, In our culture, Dharma teaches us to quench the thirsty.I thought of extending this kindness to our furry friends on the streets. To do this, all you need to do is collect used soft drink bottles, clean and fill them with water for dogs in your community.
Not only will this gesture quench their thirst, but it will also help reduce plastic waste. This shows how small actions can make a difference. Rather than a typical NGO project, it can be a community-driven initiative with a sense of responsibility and compassion towards the dogs in our neighborhoods.
