United Playground's Mission Statement

Our mission is to encourage, educate and help you to become volunteers in India and Africa. Here at United Playground we take a holistic approach to volunteering. Extremely important to us is our volunteers experience whilst out in India and Africa. We want them to be able to communicate with us and our local representatives in order to feel safe and secure. We encourage and welcome all feedback so that we can use this knowledge to improve the experiences of future volunteers. Just as important is the education and sustainability of the communities we place them in. We put a lot of time and money into building relationships with the projects we work with. Whether it's sending them much needed supplies or simply offering advice.
