Vanavil Trust was started in 2005 in the aftermath of the Asian Tsunami of 2004 to support children of two Nomadic communities, Boom Boom Mattukarars and  Narikuravars, in Tamil Nadu. After 19 years of working with the communities, Vanavil now has grown into an organisation with multiple projects that are aimed to support the education of the children from the nomadic tribal communities. 

Vanavil addresses the problem of malnutrition by providing nutritious meals to the children from the community. Vanavil runs a Primary School, Children’s Home and After-school Centres in 11 nomadic tribal hamlets. In all the above mentioned programs, we provide children with nutritious meals and snacks to address malnutrition and improve the health of children from nomadic tribal communities. 

The children at Vanavil School and Vanavil Children’s Home are provided with Healthy meals, millet snacks and milk to ensure that the children get the nutrients needed for their normal and healthy growth according to their age. At our After-School centres we provide children with healthy snacks everyday such as egg, puffed rice, green grams, black channa, etc.

We also ensure that their ailments are diagnosed and treated immediately and maintain health records of all children. By providing nutritious meals and continuous monitoring of their health we have been tackling the problem of malnutrition among the children from the nomadic communities we work with.

IMPACT

Providing children with healthy and nutritious meals along with milk and millet snacks will,

  • Address the problem of malnutrition which is very common among the children from nomadic tribal communities
