Celebrating 1,200 Followers on LinkedIn: A Milestone of Purpose, People, and Progress
We are incredibly excited to share that the Swavalamban Avam Swabhimaan Foundation (SAS Foundation) has reached a meaningful milestone — 1,200 followers on LinkedIn! 🎉
At first glance, numbers may seem like mere metrics. But for us, every single follower represents a shared belief, a strengthened connection, and a step forward in our journey to create lasting impact. This milestone is more than just a count — it is a community of supporters, dreamers, doers, and changemakers who resonate with our mission of empowering youth and transforming communities through education, health, environment, and community development.
💫 Why This Milestone Matters
In an increasingly digital world, platforms like LinkedIn are no longer just networking hubs — they are spaces of influence, learning, advocacy, and collaboration. For a grassroots-driven, youth-focused foundation like ours, LinkedIn offers a powerful platform to:
Share impact stories
Inspire action
Build credibility
Connect with mentors, changemakers, and partners
Amplify the voices of youth
Reaching 1,200 followers is a strong indicator that our work is being seen, valued, and supported across a broader spectrum of professionals, educators, students, corporates, NGOs, and civic leaders.
🙏 A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Community
This milestone belongs not just to us, but to you — our followers, volunteers, partners, interns, donors, and well-wishers. Each like, comment, share, and message you send encourages us to keep going.
To the students who have interned with us and shared their journeys…
To the educators who have invited us to their institutions to spread awareness…
To the community leaders who have welcomed us into their neighborhoods…
To our supporters across sectors — public, private, academic, and nonprofit…
Thank you. You are an integral part of our story.
🌱 Growth Rooted in Purpose
The growth of our LinkedIn community reflects the growth of our work on the ground. Here’s a quick look at some of the key areas we focus on — and how your support has helped us move forward:
1. Youth Empowerment
Through our Green Champion Internship, IT Internship, and YouthSecure 4.0 programs, we’ve empowered hundreds of young minds with knowledge, digital skills, sustainability awareness, and leadership opportunities.
We believe that when youth are given the right platform and mentorship, they don’t just learn — they lead.
2. Education & Awareness
From digital literacy workshops and career guidance sessions to e-waste awareness campaigns and health education drives, our team is on a mission to create informed, empowered communities. Education — both formal and informal — lies at the heart of everything we do.
3. Health & Well-being
We’ve conducted health camps, distributed hygiene kits, supported blind students at RBHTC with ration and repairs, and provided mental health awareness sessions — especially for underserved groups.
In every initiative, we prioritize dignity, inclusion, and accessibility.
4. Environmental Action
From e-waste collection drives with school students to green campaigns led by interns, we’re building a generation that respects and restores the planet. Our collaborations with partners like Attero have amplified our impact in driving sustainable behavior change.
📢 Voices from the Community
Many of our interns, partners, and beneficiaries have shared testimonials that keep us inspired. Here are just a few:
“SAS Foundation helped me find confidence. I never thought I could lead an awareness campaign in my society. Now I want to do more for my environment.”
– Priya, Green Champion Intern
“Your digital safety workshop made me aware of things I never thought about. Thank you for making it so relatable!”
– Aditya, Student Attendee at YouthSecure 4.0 Webinar
“The Foundation’s team doesn’t just work for the community — they work with us. That makes all the difference.”
– Local RWA Leader, Dwarka
Every story is a reminder that real change begins with listening, empathy, and action.
🤝 The Power of Partnerships and Collaboration
None of our work would be possible without the support of like-minded collaborators. Whether it’s:
Schools like BGS International Public School supporting our internships
Local RWAs partnering in e-waste drives
Doctors volunteering for health camps
Tech mentors guiding interns on IT projects
— every collaboration fuels our mission. LinkedIn has helped us forge these connections, initiate conversations, and build bridges across sectors.
🚀 What’s Next?
While this milestone is a moment to celebrate, it’s also a reminder that our journey is far from over. If anything, it energizes us to dream bigger and work harder.
Here’s what we’re looking forward to:
Scaling our internship programs to reach more youth across India
Expanding our environmental initiatives, especially around circular economy and recycling
Deepening partnerships with organizations committed to youth and community development
Launching new awareness series under YouthSecure 4.0 on cybersecurity, AI, and responsible tech use
We’re also working on a Volunteer Network, Youth Ambassador Program, and more impact storytelling campaigns — so stay tuned!
