Goodwill Ambassadors

High Achievers and Prominent Persons Speak Up For CMCA

At CMCA, we believe strongly in our cause and the importance of nurturing Active Citizenship amongst the youth in India. Lucky for us, our Goodwill Ambassadors and the high achievers who have been kind enough to give us a testimonial believe in us too. From participating in our fundraisers to making or being part of CMCA’s promotional films to offering words of encouragement, we are extremely fortunate to have the blessings of these star citizens.

Testimonials from Prominent Citizens

Major Manivannan Ponnaia, Senior Indian Administrative Service Officer

"A true patriot will support CMCA strongly. There is no programme, even with the government, of this nature and quality. The minimum governments, NGOs and the private sector can do is to support CMCA. It will make a better India."

Dr APJ Abdul Kalam

Dr APJ Abdul Kalam, Former President of India

I am delighted to know that Children’s Movement for Civic Awareness is engaged in number of campaigns through School Children to sensitize larger society and immediate surroundings on civic issues like cleanliness, garbage disposal, environment, tree planting and protection. Department of Science and Technology had taken up a programme called ‘Mapping the Neighbourhood’. These maps will enable further the technological community to find solutions for the regeneration of fast disappearing natural sources of water, improving road connectivity, finding better locations for electricity sub-stations with transformer and water distribution points, reducing traffic congestion, improved systems of garbage collection and overall improvement of environment. My greetings to all the participants of Children’s Movement for Civic Awareness for success in their mission of promoting a clean, green environment in Bangalore region.

“Greetings to the future of the country! I was honoured to be amongst such wonderful kids who know how to care about one’s environment! You kids are doing a fantastic job, but let’s pool in a lot more people from our neighbouring buildings. I was told there are almost 2000 of you actively working towards a better Mumbai. If all of us change one more human in our life time and the chain goes on, our problems will slowly get reduced and hopefully we will have a beautiful city. Hope to see you again. I would love to have a session where all you bright students could tell me how you have made a difference to society.”

“I was very impressed by the poems you have sent me. The students of Frank Anthony School have expressed a great deal of maturity in their poems about river Cauvery. The other poem is also very well written. I take this opportunity to congratulate all these young people. It seems CMCA is doing an excellent job in fostering Active Citizenship in children. I wish you all the best in all your future endeavours. I am also directing the worshipful Mayor to meet these young people and felicitate them.”
