Holy Family Church: Recognized as a “Green Champion”

We are thrilled to announce that Holy Family Church has been awarded a Certificate of Appreciation by Project Mumbai and Larsen & Toubro (L&T) for our dedicated participation in the 2025–2026 Plastic Recyclothon. This recognition marks a significant milestone in our community’s ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship and social responsibility.

Through the collective efforts of our parishioners, we successfully collected and donated 507.5 KG of plastic waste. This massive contribution—over half a ton—has been diverted from landfills and oceans, directly supporting the mission to build a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable Mumbai. Being named a “Green Champion” is a testament to the power of our everyday actions when we work together toward a common goal.

A Message of Gratitude

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to every member of the congregation who took the time to sort, wash, and bring in their plastic waste. Special thanks also go to:

  • Project Mumbai: For their vision of “People. Purpose. Positive Change.”
  • L&T Energy Hydrocarbon: For partnering in this vital public service initiative.

“Your everyday actions and donation of 507.5 KG of plastic has created a lasting impact and helped build a cleaner, greener, and more responsible Mumbai.” — Extract from the Certificate of Appreciation

Let’s keep this momentum going! This award is not just a trophy for our wall, but a reminder of our duty to care for our common home. Stay tuned for details on our next collection drive!

Green Tips for 600 KG Goal

  • Identify all types of recyclable plastics (PET bottles, HDPE containers, etc.) to maximize collection.
  • Encourage family and neighbors to join the collection drive to increase the total weight.
  • Ensure all donated plastic is thoroughly cleaned and dried to prevent contamination.
  • Set up a dedicated ‘Green Corner’ in the church for easy weekly drop-offs.
  • Organize a ‘Plastic-Free Sunday’ once a month to raise awareness and collect more items.
