Extentia held a clothes recycling drive, Kapadaa Kapadee at all three Pune offices. The was organized in partnership with Eco Regain, an organization that accepts old clothes and recycles them fashionably and sustainably. Aimed at spreading awareness about sustainable fashion, the drive was well-received as many Extentians donated their old clothes and redeemed them for coupons that they can use to purchase recycled stuff from Eco Regain.

In early November, Extentia conducted a session on emotional management for students of Friends of Children (FoC) at Sangli, Pune. The participants discussed several matters faced by them in their day-to-day lives and how they struggle to handle them. The session touched on anger management, stress management, and ways of driving healthy interpersonal relationships. The students were also given practical tips for understanding their emotions and managing them effectively.

On November 14, Extentia held an activity in association with Poveda Foundation, an NGO that works towards providing better means of education to children from low-income communities. Around 20 students from the foundation’s computer class presented their dream business ideas that ranged from shopping malls, stationery stores, flying cars, and confectioneries. The presentations were followed by detailed feedback that Extentians shared with the aspiring young minds. They were acquainted with important presentation skills and things to be considered while planning a business. The session concluded with some refreshments as the children gave each Extentia member present in the audience, a little token of appreciation on behalf of Poveda.
