Global Orphanages, Inc. offers a variety of Volunteer Programs enriching across India in both urban and rural areas. These projects provide a culturally-immersive experience while allowing volunteers to make a meaningful contribution to the Indian people. Volunteers can choose from numerous programs.
India is a land of contrasts. The vast snow clad Himalayas rear behind the rich fertile Gangetic plains. There are the arid deserts of Koteshwar on the western edge of the subcontinent, and the virgin, verdant rainforests of the Kivithoo on the eastern tip of India. There is the spectacular sunrise in the Kashmir valley in the north and the mesmerizing sunset at Land's End in Kanyakimari. Add to the abundant geographical diversity, the the diversity of the people and the culture, with six major religions, 18 major languages, and numerous racial and ethnic groups, and it would seem that India is more like a dozen distinct countries instead of the second most populous nation in the world.
If you were ever thinking about Volunteering in India you have come to the right place. Our volunteer in India programs are experiences rather then just placements. It's a unique combination of volunteer work with cultural immersion and a chance to experience India through its various spiritual traditions. When you volunteer in India with us you receive a quality volunteering experience and are guaranteed a safe and professional support network to guide you throughout your stay in India. Many of our volunteers return to India either to continue their volunteer work or to open their own projects.
India provides you endless opportunities for volunteer work and your own journey towards self discovery. India is one the the few countries in the world that offers abundant ecological variations from deserts to rain forests, from lush plains to sky-high mountains, and from historical rives to world-famous sea coasts. With a culture that can be coined as one of the most ancient in the world, for a volunteer, India can be a never ending cornucopia of adventure, revelation, and spiritual gratification.
