Namami Yamuna Foundation
नमामि यमुना फाउंडेशन
Where devotion meets conservation
We are young volunteers from Uttarakhand, cleaning and protecting the Yamuna — starting from her sacred source at Yamunotri Dham.
Why we do this
The Yamuna is born at Yamunotri — a sacred place nestled high in the Himalayas. Millions of pilgrims walk up these mountains every year to seek her blessings. But for years, plastic and garbage left behind has been quietly choking this holy river.
We believe that loving the Yamuna means taking care of her. Cleaning the river is not just environmental work — for us, it is a form of devotion.
