Indentured servants helped the colony of Virginia to thrive. The East India Company would allow English citizens to sail on their ships over to the newly formed colonies (including Virginia) and in return the people would work as house servants for a set amount of time, usually around seven years or so, and would then be free citizens. They were primarily white individuals so they were not mistreated like slaves would be, however they did have large workloads to do because they were servants, primarily house servants.
True! I think the answer is true!
