Where heritage meets young hearts!
Under the Namma Kote initiative by WMG Foundation, the fort came alive—not just in stone, but in the imagination of the children from Govt Higher Primary School, Channarayana Durga.
With @dharmendra5294 sir leading the way, they did learn the value of knowing one’s roots and local history.
This program reflected WMG Foundation’s mission to not only restore historical hill forts through the Namma Kote project but to also revive the cultural spirit and awareness among the local communities, especially the younger generation.

Strengthening Wildlife Protection in Bandipur!

With the support of KSFD & CSR contributions (Q2), WMG Foundation’s #weforwildlife initiative has introduced EV bikes for highway patrolling and drones for advanced surveillance in Bandipur Tiger Reserve!

1. EV Bikes – Faster, eco-friendly patrolling on national highways!
2. Drones – Aerial monitoring to combat poaching & track wildlife movement!

This initiative ensures better protection for Bandipur’s wildlife & forests! Let’s work together to safeguard our biodiversity.

History. Music. Literature. These treasures shape our identity. While we often learn about distant histories like Rome or London, we overlook the stories of places nearby—like Channarayana Durga, where history comes alive.
Wealth isn’t just land, homes, or bank balances—our forest wealth, historical heritage, and cultural treasures are equally invaluable.
Through tireless work and unwavering dedication, WMG Foundation is safeguarding these assets for future generations.
This is more than conservation—it’s a movement of work, motivation and gratitude. Witness the magic and join the journey.
