SIFF supports the clearance of black spots at DB Halli in collaboration with The Ugly Indian. In November 2017, over 40 volunteers from corporations, gated communities, and the village came together. This effort led to a Spot-Fix activity on DB Halli Lake Road connecting the DB Halli Village. The spot was visually transformed in a span of 3 days.

The Government school field at DB Halli caters to 150 school children and youngsters from the village. The field was infested with weeds and the terrain used to be undulating. De-weeding and leveling the field substantially improved the space available for sports.

The Anganwadi at the DB Halli Village did not have lights or a functional toilet. With the help of a few corporate volunteers, the Anganwadi looks more appealing and colorful now. Water supply was enabled for the toilets and a light fixed in the room. By the end of two hours the kids started using the toilets.
