What started with just 50 students in 2016 has now grown to a mini - organization with over 600 students. All it takes to join the NSS is a heart full of love, caring and compassion, unlike other clubs which call for specific skills like singing, painting, speaking, and so on. Students can choose from a huge bouquet of 300+ activities that they can participate in and volunteer their time for. The student teams take on a task, own the ideas, brainstorm, plan, organize, and execute it all on their own, earning widespread acclaim for their efforts.
As part of its outreach and community-connect activities, the NSS unit conducted many events during the academic year 2022-2023.
Presidency University National Service Scheme, in association with Prashraya Welfare Foundation, actively organized a "Menstrual Hygiene Awareness Program’ in April 2023 in the labor camp at Presidency University.
NSS Cell, Presidency University, in association with the campus-to-community team, participated in the school bell project of Nehru Yuvak Sangha, Bengaluru. The government school located in Turbanahalli, Yelahanka, Bengaluru, was the location where a newly registered batch of NSS students joined hands to decorate the walls of the school to bring joy to the faces of students studying in that school. The colorful wall has definitely changed the environment of the school, motivating the students to come to school regularly. Around 56 students were involved in the campaign, and they painted around 15 walls with beautiful drawings and sketches.
The NSS team participated in the Green Campus Project called Haritvam in coordination with EY Global Ltd. Company and Sparsha Trust for the Environment Literacy Campaign held on December 15, 2022, at Viveka Auditorium, Jayanagar.
Six schools were selected, and a mentor was assigned by the Yuvaka Sangha to each group consisting of five volunteers from Presidency University. The volunteers visited the schools and created awareness about water conservation and waste management. Students were asked to create projects on the themes, and they came up with very creative projects like terrariums, piggy banks made from plastic bottles, etc. Presidency University volunteers hosted competitions for the students such as essay writing, pick and speak, drawing competitions, and slogan writing.
The Presidency University NSS volunteers had organized an essay competition on the occasion of "International Women’s Day" on the topic of "women.". The history of "International Women’s Day" can be traced back to the early 20th century, when women around the world began advocating for better working conditions, voting rights, and other forms of equality. Around 50 volunteers participated in this event, with boys also taking part enthusiastically.
NSS volunteers organized activities like tree plantation drives, blood donation camps, and outreach programs throughout the year.
