Posters: II. ENACTUS ENACTUS REC, a social entrepreneurship club of Rajalakshmi Engineering College, believes in investing in students who take Entrepreneurial ACTion for others thus creating a better world for US all. The idea of bringing about a concrete change in our society without clinging onto to the tag of ‘charity’ led to the inception of Enactus REC in 2006. Every earthly soul would indeed be happy to be a part of their own success, to know that what they have is a fruit of their hard work and not something that came by charity. Hence, we at ENACTUS REC tickle and channel the ingenuine entrepreneurial skills that had been lying dormant within the youth to set up business models for the economically challenged thus bridging the gap across communities. ~ 171 ~ Rajalakshmi Engineering College – Revista 2021-22

The revenue collected will be used for our next Project KAAGITH and directly to the beneficiaries of this Project. SAKE 1L MILESTONE- OCTOBER Our project SAKE was running successfully. Schools and colleges were opened after a long time with safety regulations. To create awareness and at the same time to make students and teachers wear masks, we introduced new products like surgical color masks, embroidery, and printed cotton masks. This led to a great increase in sales. We had put up stalls in our college that also increased our sales. So by this month, we have made an incredible achievement. That is we have reached a milestone of one lakh rupees revenue. BENEFICIARIES - OCTOBER In Enactus, to find beneficiaries for our ongoing project we conducted a beneficiary’s contest in which we got overwhelmed responses. This event was helpful in finding people who are in need of help to sustain their daily life. We ourselves and our recruits had a great experience in speaking to different kinds of people living in different places with different needs. Through this event, we found a set of three beneficiaries who are ready to help us with our ongoing SAKE project. IDEA CONTEST - (November to December 2021): Enactus REC organized an \"IDEA CONTEST” online brainstorming event with our recruits from 12/11/2021 to 13/12/2021. The contest aims to make the recruits brainstorm with new project ideas so that we can take their projects to Nationals with our existing projects. The project ideas had been taken from eight different waste management-related domains. All the teams had been allotted a specific number of mentors to help them with their ideas. On the final day of idea submission out of eight teams, three teams (Paper Waste management- Kaagith, Flower waste management- ~ 173 ~ Rajalakshmi Engineering College – Revista 2021-22

Ikebana, Plastic waste management- Plact) had been selected to present in nationals. Finally, the recruits had mingled to work on the selected project ideas for nationals. NEW YEAR NEW PROJECT With this New Year, we started working on two of our new projects called IKEBANA and PLACT. IKEBANA basically focuses on uplifting the flower vendor community and at the same time, we make sure our rivers and oceans are not polluted with organic waste. We have finished our research work and have taken the survey. We have been focusing mainly on our target audience's needs. We ran a pilot test. It was a grand success. Customers loved our idea of having beeswax candles for their organic nature and appealing hand craftsmanship. Also, they loved our different floral scents which were very light. We also make organic floral-resin keychains. Our customers love the idea of using dry flowers as scrubs. Dried flowers often retain the same beauty benefits that your fresh bouquet came with. Our next project PLACT mainly deals with recycling plastic waste. This was started as an awareness project for ocean pollution. By recycling and reusing plastic raw materials and fashioning them into other products, consumers can effectively reduce plastic space taken up in ocean and landfills that can be used for biodegradable materials to save the environment. Recycling plastic helps keep it out of landfills and also helps the environment. SERIES- THE RIGHT HOUR LAUNCH Enactus Rec launched a series ‘The Right Hour’ on 25th January 2022.
