Chennai, March 2016
People For Cattle in India (PFCI), a NGO formed by the Animal Lovers to promote Animal Welfare and prevent any form of Animal Cruelty in India, launched the Water Bowl Challenge on 13th March 2016 at Heart2Heart Veterinary Hospital Santhome, to quench the thirst of animals as thousands of birds and animals flake out and die as they are devoid of proper access of water.
The intent of Water Bowl Challenge is to encourage people to place water bowls in their houses, terrace, balcony, garden, office, streets and wherever else possible in order to help the birds and animals quench their thirst anytime they need. To take up the water bowl challenge, one has to collect their water bowl, click a picture with an animal or bird drinking water from the bowl they had collected and post it on PFCI's Social Media Page. The best photo will stand to win a prize, which will be announced on April 15.
On addressing the need for the campaign Shihan Hussaini - Archery / Karate Master said "As the temperature keeps soaring and the scorching heat is making its residents thirstier, we often forget that there are animals who struggle to quench their thirst as well. A campaign like water bowl challenge would save them from the hardships faced".
THE WATER BOWL CHALLENGE witnessed an overwhelming support from Chennaites and eminent personalities like Balakrishnan IPS - Deputy Commissioner of Police, Srimathi Sivashankar - AVP HCL Techonologies, Apsara Reddy, Shihan Hussaini - Archery / Karate Master, Harish Uthaman - Actor, Ujjayine Roy - Playback Singer and Thejaswini - Actor took up the Challenge to showcase their support.
