This workcamp has been organized together with Green Volunteers for Green Future (GV4GF) since 2012 (since 2019 in this place!). GV4GF is a NGO to promote voluntary service, environmental protection and improve rural life. Most of local people are less educated and youth possess less privilege. And South Indian Tamil community live here as a labor force to tea plantation. Most of the GOs and NGOs do not want to implement programs due to less facilities, damaged roads and unavailability of luxurious life.

They have no proper guidance to change the distinctive attitudes.
