Volunteering in India

Options
This summer I worked at a care home for orphaned children with HIV. I taught English and sport and had the most incredible time of my life doing it.

My neighbour from home who is a very experienced social worker has also gone over there and enjoyed it so much that he set up a charity over here to help them.

They are always looking for people to go over there and teach, so if anyone wants a summer out from uni, or something like that please get in touch.

They charge you nothing as it isn't through a company, they will give you accomodation and all the curry you can eat. However, you do not get paid.

If anyone is interested, or would like to know a bit more please get in touch with me any time.

Thanks :)

  • Hi, I was wondering if you would be able to forward details to myself.
    We are a little *ahem* older than gap year students, but we intend having a year out and this would appeal to ourselves. If they'd be willing to take on a couple of "oldies". (we're in our late 40's)
    We're just saving up at the moment and hopefully will start planning our trip in spring next year, so any details would be great.
    thanks
