Waterbody Restoration
Damooga Foundation restores lakes, ponds, and canals through community-led rejuvenation efforts that revive biodiversity, improve water security, and bring back lost ecosystems.
How We Work
From de-silting to recharging wells and building native green buffers, our method balances hydrology and ecology.
De-silting and Deepening
Improves water storage, flood control, and groundwater recharge.
Bund Strengthening & Walkways
Reinforces lake edges while enabling public access and recreation.
Native Tree Plantation & Green Zones
Improves biodiversity and air quality around the restored areas.
Community Monitoring & Signage
Locals participate in upkeep, waste control, and seasonal checkups.
Why It Matters
Water is life, and restoring local waterbodies safeguards climate, crops, and communities. Here’s why our model matters.
Improves Groundwater Levels
Desilted ponds and lakes recharge wells and borewells in surrounding areas.
Controls Flooding & Erosion
Strong bunds and inlets manage monsoon overflow effectively.
Brings Back Aquatic Biodiversity
Restored lakes attract birds, fish, frogs, and native plants.
Unites the Community
Locals gain pride, participation, and shared responsibility for their ecosystem.
