Boomers Abroad

Highlights

Rejoice and Salvation in Trinity Services is a non-profitable charitable social organization. They aim to provide skill development training to single women from remote regions for their self-reliance. They engage those women with encourageable job training in the local region with great enthusiastic and fruitful programs. Their main role is in the facilitation of endangered castes, orphans, helpless children and others to manage food, clothing, shelter and education. RST Services also helps to organize free health camps and run primary education in remote villages. They were established in 1990 especially for orphaned children but as of late, they have been working towards the upliftment of the poor, abandoned, and helpless children as well as single mothers.

This placement has never had volunteers work with them before! They have roughly 46 children and 4 single mothers to look after. They need help to care for the kids, teach English, help with daily household tasks, and agricultural work. There is plenty of potential to spear-head projects such as: painting, eco-system development, outdoor renovations, etc.
Rejoice and Trinity Services hopes that the exposure of volunteers will help motivate the children, develop leadership skills, and exchange ideas that will help improve the efficiency of the organization overall.

Qualifications
