About the Program
Volunteering with India is running a center for street children in India. Here we do our best to provide children who are found on the streets, traffic signals, railway stations and bus stands.Some children are sent by their parents to do activities like begging, vending, selling cigarettes and tobacco, peddling lottery tickets etc. At the end of the day they give their earnings to their families.
With the help of our team members and with the help of police we are able to bring these children in our center where we provide them with accommodation, food, education, personality development and many activities which a child needs for his growth.
This program was established in 2007 with the aim of helping and supporting children from difficult circumstances. The program focus is on runaways, orphans, street children, slum children in Jaipur.
Since the program started we have repatriated more than thousands of children & the number is still going. After repatriating them we keep in contact with them to see if everything is going alright with these children.
We run this program with our partner NGO which has local volunteers who take care of these children. One of our program coordinator will always be there at the program site to assist the foreign volunteers. Local volunteers are not good in English so the coordinator helps foreign volunteers in all stages.
Mission of the Project
Our mission is to provide the best care and protection for these children; to preserve and protect their childhood rights. To bring them back into society by providing them with their basic necessities for life.
Role of the Volunteer
You as a volunteer will be involved in activities such as teaching them basic English and mathematics, health awareness and personality development classes. Personality development includes talking about having a positive attitude towards life, self-esteem, manners, speaking and behaving in public etc. You will also be involved in activities related to art & craft work, such as drawing and henna painting. Health education programs such as the AIDS-awareness program make them be aware of health & hygiene tips and nutrition. Sports and games have also been organized by volunteers in order to develop their physical stamina; all these are very helpful in making their life better and in rehabilitating them.
Project Needs
Children in the project came here from the kidnapping gangs, some were left by their parents on railway stations, bus stations so they have a very sad past stories. Having volunteers with them at all time makes them happy and they feel that they have somebody taking care of them even if they don’t have parents. All the children in center are living together just like an orphanage house We do provide all education materials, food, accommodation facilities and sports equipment.

VWI will make arrangements for room, food and transportation for the volunteers, from the first day of the volunteer’s arrival in Jaipur, India. Volunteers will be living with an Indian host family. You will have your own room that you may or may not share with another volunteer of the same sex. Our host families are carefully screened and selected based on VWI requirements. Host families are experienced in the realm of hosting international travellers for a least 10 years.
The accommodation and meals provided at the host family will be basic. You will be getting three meals per day (Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner), the very same food your host family themselves will be having, traditional but very nutritious. However if you are unable to adjust to food or need more nutrition/protein/special diet you can arrange your own meals from produce at the near local market. Staying with a host family is a great way to learn about a host country’s culture and customs. Every host family will have internet facilities so you can stay in contact with your own family.
