" I am excited to be a Millennium Fellow because I believe that meaningful change
begins at the local level. My work, whether it's planting trees with drones or tackling local pollution, is driven by a deep commitment to both my community and the broader environment. Through these efforts, I hope to contribute to a more sustainable future and support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Connect for Good

ConnectForGood is a database management system designed to connect volunteers with social impact projects. The platform aims to streamline the matchmaking process by allowing organizations to post their projects and specify the
required skills and expertise. Developers and volunteers can create profiles highlighting their skills and interests, which are used to match them with suitable projects. This system facilitates meaningful collaborations and enhances the efficiency of volunteer recruitment for social impact initiatives.

About the Millennium Fellow

Tell us about yourself!
Arpitha Sudhir is a passionate and dedicated final-year Computer Science Engineering student at Model Engineering College in Kerala, India, where she was born and continues her education. Deeply committed to environmental causes, she is an active environmentalist who believes that change begins at the grassroots level. Though she is involved in global initiatives like Save Seas and Save Trees, she focuses on making a tangible impact in her local community, particularly in the areas surrounding her college, which suffer from severe pollution. She has taken on several environmental projects aimed at improving her local environment. One of her most significant initiatives involves using drones and sensors to plant trees in barren, treeless areas across the country. This innovative project not only addresses deforestation but also integrates cutting-edge technology to achieve environmental goals efficiently.
Her dedication to these causes reflects her belief in starting small while keeping a broader, global perspective. She hopes to expand her efforts, ultimately contributing to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Her vision is to create lasting change, starting from her local community and extending to the world stage.
