Saket Mehendale, an architect by profession, an avid animal lover and an artist at heart, showcased more than 50 of his paintings at the Darpan Art Gallery in Patrakar Nagar, from the 18th to the 21st of July.
All the proceeds from the sale of his paintings were donated to ResQ by him! He believes in not earning from his art! And from his past experience with ResQ, he decided to donate it all to us!
This is to thank him for such a kind, gracious and selfless gesture on his behalf! Thanks a ton!!

We have volunteer meetings every 1st Friday or Sunday of the month. Check the ‘upcoming events’ category to keep yourself updated with the next meeting date.
The purpose of this meeting:
a) For existing volunteers: To make sure that the volunteer network is in touch with each other, with the organisation and with all events. Through this meeting we encourage volunteers to discuss rescue work, problems faced in the past month, find solutions, and also share any new ideas and concepts that would benefit the organisation. Note: Existing Volunteers, you may also claim your re-imbursements for any expenses incurred on behalf of the organisation at these meetings.
b) As an induction program for all new volunteers that sign up:
You will be introduced to the working group and given a brief about the different areas of work in RESQ. The meeting will also be an opportunity for new volunteers to get to know other volunteers in their area as well as get to meet volunteers working in different areas of RESQ, so that you can join groups according to your liking/ preference.
