Help India

As you’ll discover when you travel and help India, far from the image we have of the country as a mysterious and exotic getaway, many Indians live lives that are rather less glamorous. Despite recent economic growth, India is dealing with an acute poverty problem in its urban areas, so volunteering here is extremely rewarding. We work with a range of projects all over India so you can choose the best way to help India.

Volunteering in India

India is a haven for travellers; they gravitate to its muddy streets and rolling hills like moths to a particularly colourful flame. Helping India is the best way to see what people find so special about the place. In fact, you’ll go even further than most because volunteering allows you to live and work in communities up and down the country and meet the locals. The fact that English is the national language will make communication and travel really easy (well not that easy, you’ll still have to navigate the wandering cows and speeding rickshaws!) Check out the projects we work with and find the best way for you to help India.
