The work in the Anganbari is important and good there is a lot of potential in it. The people of this village are really enthusiastic and it would have been better if I would stay longer to be able to establish a good routine. I enjoyed it very much and hopefully I can come back and volunteer again at the Day Care Center with Shake Hands-India Volunteer Program.

Rural Rajasthan

Shake Hands is active in a remote area of rural Rajasthan through Jiliya project. Jiliya: The village, Jiliya, is the rural Rajasthan project site of the organization. Jiliya is situated in the District Nagaur in the State Rajasthan. Nagaur is one of economically underdeveloped district of the state. Being a desert area, the district suffers from lack of water. About 5000 people live in the village of Jiliya. 99% of the villagers of Jiliya are Hindus. The majority of the villagers are involved in agricultural activities, but because of the ongoing drought they benefit very little from this.
