In India many young children opt out of education in favour of a life on the streets or working as child labourers. Volunteer during your gap year with this organisation in
Chennai that runs transit schools to motivate these young people back into mainstream education.
Your Role: As a gap year volunteer you would be placed in one or more of these schools. This could involve moving around the city of
Chennai holding classes in different locations. You would be required to teach conversational English and other informal activities (sports, games, arts and crafts etc.) to make education as enjoyable as possible for the children. Use your imagination to inspire theirs!
What you Gain: This is a wonderful gap year voluntary project where your imagination and enthusiasm will make a real difference the lives of these young children. See these young children grow in knowledge and determination, working their way to a better future.
