Different material help, like school materials, bicycles to the girls, engagement with the communities to for their support and awareness towards education by different activities in community.
“Giving is not just about making a donations, it is about making a difference.”

It has make some remarkable changes in communities, which is helping the students to be in school. GVT has seen that the children who are not going to school because of having less school materials are now happily going to school, the school teachers are also appreciating the efforts has the children who have continuously not going to school from last few years are benefited from extra class, from the community to improve their learning level, community people are sitting at one table to discuss about the education challenges of their villages and so on.
At GVT office, it has discussed many time that material help will not allow the community people to think, they will be reliable on GVT or some other organization and will not work to change their future, but at the same time it is also important to make them think differently. Which has help in making the change in their mindset. The journey is quite difficult to explain, but the fruits are really sweet.
Help GVT in different ways to help the community, and the children to learn, think and enjoy the life.
