Description
There are three project options that the participant can choose from in Delhi. The first is a teaching program that takes place in community schools. Volunteers are needed to either teach in classrooms or teach groups of children in an 'open air classroom'. The second option gives volunteers the opportunity to work at an orphanage, providing education, warmth, affection, and care to disadvantaged and orphaned children. Another project is working at shelter homes for street children in and around Delhi. This will give volunteers the opportunity to assist in basic literacy, recreation and care.
Highlights
After work, volunteers will have ample free time to explore and travel around Delhi. The city has a lot to offer in terms of shopping, culture and global cuisine. New Delhi has a thriving nightlife and is home to many leading personalities in art and literature.
