Honoring Tradition, Protecting Nature.
For generations, Bangalore residents have left old divine items under peepal trees, near temples, or in lakes — out of reverence. But broken glass hurts animals, synthetic materials pollute water, and chemical colors damage soil. Sampige Foundation offers a sacred middle path: respectful disposal that honors tradition while protecting our city.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the eco-friendly way to dispose of pooja items in Bangalore?
Instead of dumping items in lakes or under trees, bring them to Sampige Foundation in Malleshwaram. We separate materials respectfully, recycle wood, glass, and metal, and naturalize paper and cloth through eco-friendly composting.
I am moving houses and need to clear my entire pooja room. Can you help?
Absolutely! For bulk clearances during house moves or renovations, please call us at +91 77606 90264 to arrange a free pickup from your home anywhere in Bangalore.
What types of religious items do you accept?
We accept God photo frames (all materials), damaged or old idols, pooja cloths, sacred threads, wooden altars, kalash items, religious books, calendars, and any items used in worship that are no longer in use.
Is there any religious ritual performed before disposal?
We treat every item with full reverence throughout the process. While we do not perform specific pooja rituals ourselves, we ensure respectful handling and encourage devotees to perform their own farewell prayers before dropping off.
How often do you organize community collection drives?
We organize special collection drives during major festivals (Ganesh Chaturthi, Varalakshmi, Diwali, etc.) in different Bangalore neighborhoods. Check our Events page or follow us for announcements.
Can CSR partners support this initiative?
Yes! We welcome CSR partnerships from Bangalore-based companies to help us expand this service to more neighborhoods. Please visit our CSR page or email sampigefoundation@gmail.com for partnership details.
