📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Organized together with Green Volunteers for Green Future (GV4GF) since 2012 (since 2013 in this place). GV4GF is a NGO to promote voluntary service, environmental protection and improve rural life. Paniyankadawala is located in the North Central province. In this area, people depend on paddy farming and besides that, home gardening and other small scale crops are planting because for next 8 months, they cannot grow any crops. Some families are making clay bricks for their survivals.

💼 What the programme involves

We will join poor farming families by planting, weeding, harvesting, putting fertilizers, etc. as well as small scale brick making. We will also do some activities with the women’s group, youth and children. At the last dinner, we will prepare our countrys’ food and do some cultural activities too.
