Various Volunteering Opportunities in India

Everyone thought I had lost my mind to travel to India, by myself to volunteer in an orphanage for five weeks. And there were times, I thought they were right- until I arrived at the airport and Sukret met me there and drove me to meet my host family. From the moment I arrived to the moment I left to return home, this program took great care of me! I always felt safe. I learned so much about their culture. I was able to go with the family to events, and saw so much of India. The drivers, host family, tour guides were all wonderful and took care of everything! I can't say enough good things about this program. I will be coming back and volunteering again through this program. The experience working in the orphanage was amazing and I enjoyed every moment teaching the boys English and math. This is a great opportunity for anyone interested in volunteering in India. Don't hesitate or worry about utilizing Volunteering with India. Everyone is great! I want to give a special shout out to the Singh family- Love you!! Rohit, you were amazing to work with everyday and miss you! Bablu- I can't thank you enough for driving me around and the coffee was the best coffee that I've ever had in my life!! This was the best five weeks of my life!

My host family was great. The food and room were very nice and the family included me in many activities. Amazing project staff. Govine was very friendly and helpful. He helped me learn a lot about the elephants and the children's program. He also helped me a lot when I was teaching! I volunteered with VWI because I love elephants and I volunteer with children in America so I thought this program had 2 volunteer options that I love. I also have always wanted to travel to India. Volunteering with this program gave me an opportunity to travel around an amazing country and help make a difference in their community. I had such a wonderful time. I am so happy to have participated in this program and would highly recommend this program! Thank you!
