Friends of Vrindavan's work in India focuses around three main areas: Greening, Cleaning and Education. These are the factors which directly impinge on the quality of life of the people of India.

Greening, because trees provide shelter, fresh air, fodder, fuel, forage and perhaps most importantly, they help to recharge the groundwater levels by absorbing and retaining the rainfall.
Cleaning, because sanitation and refuse disposal is essential to the health and well being of the community.
Education, because it is only by educating the young people in particular that long term change can be affected in the community.

Children are the future

In addition, Friends of Vrindavan now works in partnership with Food For Life Vrindavan, who offer essential support in villages of the Vrindavan region in the form of free food for the children, the handicapped, pilgrims, widows and sadhus, free health clinics for mothers and children and the Trees for Life programme in village schools.
