Through the partnership with Societe Generale, SayTrees will rejuvenate the 50-acre Nallurhalli lake, along with urban afforestation to improve the conditions of the ecosystem of the lake and, provide protection from further damage and encroachment.

The project also includes tree plantation around the lake boundary which are beneficial to the environment and suitable to be grown as per the weather and other environmental factors preferably with medicinal properties aimed at improving the quality of air and surroundings for years to come.

FFE was founded in 1994 with a mission to provide college scholarships to students who, although financially constrained, show great promise in the technological, engineering and medical fields. This project seeks to transform the lives of academically gifted and financially needy students by supporting them through their professional Engineering education by awarding scholarships. 

Through this partnership students pursue their dreams of professional education in Engineering/Technology (BE/B.Tech) and are granted a scholarship for the 4 years of their undergraduate study programme.

Currently, many students abandon such dreams as the current financial restraints faced by many families curtail such ambitions. Further, by awarding merit-based scholarships, students can stay focused on the demands of an all-round professional education with a goal to excel without additional financial burden.
