Community Development Volunteering in Jaipur, India

My friend and I were doing the woman empowerment program for ten days and we had a great time staying with Manu and her family. We were taken care of and had a nice place to stay. We were picked up by Sukret who told us a lot about our stay and showed us where we could go in our free time. Our guide Pradeep was so welcoming and funny and he knew a lot about Jaipur and Rajasthan in general. The volunteering was not exactly what we thought it would be, as we found out that they had their own beauty class and we were there as support and motivation, and not as teachers. They taught us more about henna. But overall the experience was amazing. We were welcomed by everyone and felt very safe with everyone. It will be something we never forget.

Assisting with the care of rescued birds in Jaipur was an inspiring experience. We worked closely with vets, ensuring the birds received proper treatment. The dedication of the team was truly admirable, and I learned so much from them. Jaipur itself was a fascinating city to explore, with its rich culture and vibrant markets. This program reinforced my passion for conservation and animal welfare.
