Transforming Amaragiri: ServiceNow's Commitment to Empowering the Chenchu Community

 March 17, 2025

Amaragiri, a remote village nestled in the heart of Nagarkurnool District, Telangana, is home to Chenchus, a resilient PVTG fishermen community that has long endured bonded labour and harsh conditions with limited livelihood opportunities.

Responding to the community’s needs, 4 large and 20 small fishing nets were provided to enhance their livelihoods. Additionally, 10 camp tents equipped with solar lamps were distributed, ensuring better living conditions. Further strengthening the village infrastructure, solar streetlights were installed, creating a safer and brighter environment.

This initiative is a model of sustainability in both social and environmental aspects. Socially, it empowers the community by creating sustainable livelihood opportunities. Environmentally, it fosters clean energy adoption through the installation of solar-powered solutions.
