Though India has surpassed its development goals, poverty still remains a serious problem that primarily affects the children of rural poor families. Luckily, efforts have been made by various welfare organizations to protect these children’s lives, to provide a safe and secure home environment, and most importantly to offer them an adequate education. As a volunteer, you will share your time, energy, and skills to support these children and bring a bright ray of hope into their lives.

Volunteers’ jobs include teaching basic English in the ordinary school, drawing, organizing games, singing, dancing, theater, and sporting activities. General care of the children is also required. You may be asked to perform general and special tasks and accompany the children on outings as assigned by the project. Working at an orphanage requires love for children, maturity, and self-discipline.
