i-to-iVolunteer in India
India is a poor country. Almost a quarter of the population live below the poverty line – that’s 250 million people. By choosing to volunteer in India you will help locally-run charitable organisations and NGO’s to continue their good work. Another reason for choosing to volunteer in India, is that by volunteering you will live and work alongside local people which will give you a deeper and more authentic understanding of the subcontinent and its people.
We work with volunteer projects which are involved with Community development, conservation, the media, and teaching English in India. Some of our most popular India volunteer projects include: Community work in Calcutta, Teaching English in Darjeeling and Animal rescue work in Delhi.
