Hi, I am Thomas and I just did 15 days in India. The weather
was hot but did it matter to me ??? ..not at all, …. because I had planned this
holiday focusing Volunteer Trip to India. It’s a habit for me to devote at least 40%
of holiday time to working with less privileged children. I browsed India
Volunteer Tourism, looking for an option which allowed my mornings free for
sightseeing and social work during the hot desert afternoons of Jaipur. It was
a tall order, something like a customised volunteering scheme.
I matched and counter-matched with Volunteer Tours India and
found some lovely event write-ups on Shaping Lives of visits in an NGO which
worked with children from local slums in afternoon classes. They also gave contact
details to assist me in my volunteer effort and suggested low budget home stay
options should I be interested. That for me was simply WOW! … I hooked on and
my holiday at Jaipur became memorable. I enjoyed the free mornings and looked
forward to being with the lovely children every afternoon. Taught them English
and basic maths, and learnt some exciting local dance steps from them. I have
planned on a fundraising for the NGO back home and I really must suggest that
any and everyone at least have a look at this website whenever they have wish
to do Volunteer Tours India .
You won’t regret it.
