MPT began donating to this grass roots organisation in 2002 helping towards their seven year project creating HIV/AIDS Awareness amongst Tribal groups in this remote and desperately poor area of the Nilgris Region. They have already set up a successful women's health and support outreach programme. Under the administration of the awesome and dedicated Welsh nurse, botanist and healer Vanya Orr, their community/medicinal/nutritional herb garden and farmer training facilities and outreach HIV/AIDS awareness and wellbeing programme now extends to over 20 villages. Dead land has been reclaimed and they have become self-supporting. Farmers in much of India are in crisis, topsoil is disappearing at the rate of 10 tons per acre per year, due to chemical fertilizers which have made the land infertile and non-water retentive and this land has been declared by the Indian Government to be officially DEAD. Using much forgotten local expertise, an Organic Herb Garden was established and a collection of over 400 medicinal herbs and plants grown, all with economic and nutritional value. A thriving business distilling essential oils was set up and this blue print has now been extended to 58 villages and Vanya Orr’s extraordinarily dedicated work has received UN recognition. A broken community has been reborn!
