Compassionate people can pay 4,900 yuan ($771) for one year's property rights for 0.07 hectares of a tea plantation in Danzhai, Southwest China's Guizhou province as part of a project that aims to help at least 1,000 impoverished families.

The Danzhai Poverty Alleviation Tea Garden is a new poverty alleviation project launched by Danzhai Wanda Town and Danzhai Landscape Heritage Tea Culture Co Ltd of Guizhou, with the support of Danzhai's Party committee and the government.
