The tree nursery we funded in the jungle in Sarawak. In Borneo we are working in close collaboration with the community to help them to resist, cope with and reverse the deforestation of their environment.
We do this in a way that promotes long term sustainable development of the community. We also help them to attract and draw great benefits from a controlled, manageable flow of visitors arriving through our responsible travel and ethical tourism partner organisation Adventure Alternative.

World Vision India at Vishakapatnam had taken innovative steps towards combating this social evil.
Here, we used to run a day care center (child labour center) for children of rag pickers and beggars. These children get to learn new things. They are provided with mid-day meals. Moreover, they are given non-formal education that enables them to join school at an appropriate time.
Testifying to this is the story of Dayamayudu.
Dayamayudu’s day starts at 7.00 in the morning.
While his mother is busy begging at the bus stops and signals, Dayamayudu is busy collecting plastic wastes, milk covers, steel scraps and other rubbish that he finds on the way side. Tea and a little food – that’s his lunch. After lunch, he sells his scrap materials to the vendor for just Rs. 40 or 50. Keeping apart Rs. 10 for himself, he hands over the remaining money to his mother.
It was likely that he would spend the rest of his lifetime as a rag picker. Education and health has no part in his life – not even in his dreams.
Poverty had pushed Dayamayudu to child labour. His mother was also helpless.
At this critical juncture, World Vision intervened in Dayamayudu’s life. He was enrolled in the Child Labour Centre.
Initially, Dayamayudu felt uncomfortable to sit in the class room within the four walls after being used to roam about freely on the streets. Neither he nor his mother was happy to let go the little earnings.
However, the staff of World Vision kept encouraging him. They also counseled his mother. He was taught to brush, bath, dress neatly, oil his hair, comb and to take good care of his health.
“Even though I don’t get any earning through him, I am happy that he is being educated,” says Dayamayudu’s mother with pride in her eyes. He is being coached on class 5 at the Bridge School run by World Vision. He appeared for the entrance examination for 5th std and today he is studying 6th at Municipal Corporation High School.
His life has changed. “When I grow up, I will help the poor people in my community,” says an ambitious Dayamayudu.
World Vision did not stop with that. His mother was given push cart through World Vision Economic Development Assistance. Today, none in his family are involved in either rag picking or begging.
This year, Government has opened an Anganwadi (day care) center in this area. Through this center, pre-school children are prepared for academics.
World Vision has given play materials worth Rs. 20,000 to this center. Parents now enthusiastically send their children to this center and they are happy to see their child learn new things.
Thanks to the donors and sponsors through World Vision, a society has been reformed.
Here's a few photos of some of the young folk from Westburn Youth Club enjoying basketball provided by UTD Sports Ltd.
The session was part of a number of taster classes taking place over the last few weeks, thanks to funding made available through Participatory Budgeting - where community members decide on how local funding is spent and what activities they want in their local community through a voting system.
The young people took part in a consultation event earlier in the year to decide what events they would like to take place in their local area - so far, they have enjoyed:
- Street dance & Hip Hop
- Hockey & Short Tennis
- Athletics & Badminton
- Cheerleader and Gymnastics
- Fun, Fitness and Rugby
Over the next few weeks, the young people will take part in a second consultation where they will decide what activities they would like to continue, and this will be rolled out over a continuous 12-week program.
Well done guys!

As an instructor in a computer center, Kavitha helps several students master in computers. Watching her in the middle of her work, as she switches back and forth between different computer screens, everything looks good. But look at her closely! She is not walking normally. And watch her go back home. She rides the three-wheeler bike.
Life has been a tough journey for this 24-year-old Kavitha. While she was still a little child, she was stricken with polio, which affected her legs. Her father considered her “an unwanted asset.” Life was miserable indeed, but Kavitha had no other option.
