Description

From north to south and east to west, the people are different, the languages are different, the customs are different and the country is different! It is a fascinating country filled with mystery, beauty, spirituality and adventure. The unique culture and natural wonders of the country mesmerize tourists who quickly realize that what you find in India, you will find nowhere else in the world. We have volunteer work programs in India which include; working with orphans at an orphanage,with kids at day care centres, women empowerment/support programs, HIV/Health programs, helping and supporting street children and teaching English. We provide all these volunteer programs in conjunction with various government approved NGO's which are working towards various community programs. Our volunteer programs in India are carefully chosen so that both volunteers and the people gain equally through this effort. We have had more than 500 volunteers in India since 2007 & continue to receive more and more.

Our volunteers make a significant change in the society, they share their love and affection with others which is welcome by all. Start your volunteer experience in India by taking the 1 week language and culture orientation week in New Delhi and continue your volunteer work in India in New Delhi, Kolkata, Bangalore (Bengaluru), Dharamshala/Palampur.

India is not a place you simply and clinically see, it's a total experience, a place you will never forget!
