Vanavil Trust was started in 2005 in the aftermath of the Asian Tsunami of 2004 to support the children of two Nomadic communities, Boom Boom Mattikarars and Narikuravars, in Tamil Nadu. After 18 years of working with the communities, Vanavil has now grown into an organization with multiple projects that are aimed at supporting the education of the children from the nomadic tribal communities.
