India Volunteer Himachal Pradesh 4 Week
Based in the beautiful region of Himachal Pradesh overlooked by the Himalaya Mountains, this program offers volunteers the opportunity to work and explore areas often overlooked by backpackers.
Working in orphanages, education and childcare, volunteers choose the project they most want to become involved in to help underprivileged children and their communities.
The Volunteer PlacementThe program provides volunteers with a varied and interesting role using their skills to enhance the community and to make a significant impact on the district to help those less fortunate than themselves.
Your volunteer placement could involve any of the following work:
-
Teaching placement - Teach the children English as well as creating a playful, interesting environment for them.
-
Childcare volunteer placement - Work in a day care centre. These centres aren't the crèches we're used to in the West - they are for ensuring children and mothers are receiving enough care and support. You will spend your day giving personal care and attention to the children and help feed them etc.
-
Special Needs School volunteer placement - Help out in an understaffed special needs school. Assist teachers complete assignments, organise activities for the kids and visit the children's home to help families cope.
Project LocationFollowing an overnight stay in Delhi, the group travels to Jaipur for a three day stay to include orientation and sightseeing. The group then catches an overnight train to Palamphur, a charming town set in the mountains. Volunteers will spend the majority of the program based here.
Accommodation & MealsAll food and accommodation is provided. The food is excellent and thankfully plentiful after a hard days work!
