Nurture and Care
The focus of HELP Foundation is Restoration of the Wetlands Ecosystem. HELP sees Environment from the perspective of a subject that needs Sustainable Nurture and Care. In its activities, HELP strives to protect the ecosystem around wetlands, so that the water body can be conserved, which will eventually lead to the restoration of the ecosystem around it. The water body is thereby nursed back to health and is sustained for future generations. HELP got into the “Nurture and Care” aspect through its Mangrove Afforestation work.
