    Om programmet

    In the poorer regions of India, there is often a lack of infrastructure and simply not the budget to build or maintain vital community buildings and schools. 

    On this project, you will get your hands dirty, focusing on working at the slum and children schools allocated to the poor. Despite the previous efforts, the work here is far from done and we continue to renovate pathways, toilets, walls, etc. Moreover, those with artistic talents can help decorate the walls by painting images and sketches of their home countries and cultures. This is a great way for volunteers to leave their mark, and to see over time the efforts from volunteers from all parts of the world!

    Other construction work may be carried out in a local village (renovating and building houses and sanitation facilities) or working on construction projects at local hospitals - this very much depends on the needs of any particular time. Volunteers’ skills will be used where they are most needed at the time.
