It is a good program. I really enjoyed working with the children at the orphanage. Accommodation was fine and the food was really very good. Shake Hands staff was very friendly and helpful. The cook was really in good in making food. Overall impression is that the program is making a good effort in helping the volunteers achieve their goals.

Orphanage Work in India

The activities you’ll be doing
With our program we seek to assist the orphanage in helping the children. The volunteers will participate in the daily routines and can contribute with many things, just by being caring and affectionate in the work with the children. The volunteers will work with the children from 0 to 6 years old. There are also groups of mentally challenged children; the work will especially be with the mentally challenged, because this is where the Orphanage staff seriously needs help. Mentally challenged children need special care and attention, but the Orphanage does not have enough manpower to provide this. Volunteers will assist the Orphanage staff and contribute with special attention to the children.

A day in the life of a volunteer
On working days, volunteers usually get up and have breakfast before leaving for their Volunteer Placements. The kitchen team will provide you packed lunch and you bring it to work area. Our staff will provide transportation to and from your Volunteer Placement if required. You will probably spend about 5-6 hours at this Volunteer Placement. Evenings will be filled with opportunities to learn about the local culture and customs, field trips to places of local interest, discussions with experts on local issues and others. Evening meal-times provide another exciting chance to enjoy authentic food provided by host family/our staff cooks. The food is delicious and healthy and takes full advantage of local cooking traditions. The evenings and weekends are free time, to relax or explore the local area. Volunteers often travel to other parts of the country at weekends, and the staff who are all from the local area themselves, are always happy to make recommendations.
