🏢 About the local organisation
Organized together with Green Volunteers for Green Future(GV4GF) since 2012 (2nd time in this place). GV4GF is a NGO newly founded to promote voluntary service, environmental protection and improve rural life. NICE's been co-organizing the projects to enable them to do by themselves from 2015! Anuradhapura is suffered by lack of facilities for students, health and transportation. More than 70% of the people are living here below the poverty level, living in the house made by clay without toilets.
💼 What the programme involves
We will do various types of work such as helping the villagers to plant seedlings and plants of their farm lands (Pani 1) and harvesting (Pani 2), working with local youth and organizing cultural exchange events for local community. We also aim to widen the recognition about the marginalized community.
