Assist in teaching or use your skills in painting, music, dance, drama at this project.

You can volunteer during your gap year abroad to teach at a school run by a women's union in Kolkata. A pre-school, crèche and playground are part of the facilities run by this 50 year old institution that was set up to help under-privileged girls become more self reliant. Most of the children are aged between 6 and 11, some of whom live within the centre, with others living in the surrounding slum areas. They also provide support for single mothers, run income generation and empowerment initiatives for women and run an old age women's home.
