    Om programmet

    Most disabled individuals in India are ignored and neglected, often locked out of sight in dark rooms. This is because their family members feel ashamed at having lost prestige and respect in the community through the persons disability. Often these children live a life where they feel no love, care or self worth. Some are even reduced to begging on the streets. Volunteers can also help to plan outings in the local area and design creative learning sessions. Depending on the volunteer’s level of experience you may provide more education on care methods to the staff. Or you can do some vocational training and set up income-generating programs. You can also introduce the use of ICT technology in the student’s learning and play. Our overall mission is to provide education to improve the lives of special children families and communities.

    Volunteers spend up to 4 hours a day at the center, assisting caregivers in preparing and running activities for the students. For those who are able to learn, the volunteers can teach the children basic English.If volunteers have had previous experience with disabled children then they may enjoy this placement more. However, previous experience is not a requirement. When choosing to work at the disabled center you must be patient, friendly and approachable. This work can be very challenging because of all the different learning and physical difficulties encountered. But the staff at the center are always on hand to help guide you.

    Afhentning i lufthavnen i Gaggal Airport

    To embark on our transformative programs, individuals first journey to Delhi International Airport. From there, the path diverges: a direct flight whisks them to the serene embrace of Gaggal, Dharamshala, or they opt for a scenic Volvo bus ride, winding through the picturesque landscapes toward Dharamshala. Regardless of the chosen route, our team ensures a seamless transition, extending a warm welcome with airport pickups and the reassuring presence of our coordinator throughout the Volvo journey.

    Indkvartering

    The rooms are provided with bunk beds for four people. All rooms have attached or non-attached bathrooms with a toilet (toilet paper will be provided). The running water in the shower is cold, it will only be heated up during the winter season (late October – early March). A single room can be requested upon availability and with a small extra charge only by couples.

    In our volunteer house, the volunteers have access to computers with broadband, a sky TV with English and Hindi channels, a film library and a book library.

    Volunteers are responsible for the cost of their own phone call charges.

    Mad og drikkevarer

    All meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) within the accommodation are native to the region of India and freshly prepared by our house chef. The meals are mostly north Indian curries and traditional Himachali food, so the meals can often be vegetarian. Non vegetarian food is prepared only on special demand and it will charge an extra amount.  

    Moreover you can mention your food related allergies and it will be kept in mind while preparing the food.

    We have water purification facilities on site that volunteers can use to fill their water bottles.

    About Us

    Believing in “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam”, which implies that the whole world is one family. The aim of launching Dharamshala Volunteering and Travel Solutions is to provide cross culture experience with travel and volunteering opportunities to international volunteers. Dharamshala Volunteering and Travel Solutions works to serve people who are living in rural villages of Dharamshala in the best possible ways. We have previously worked as Pari Volunteerism Services with 9+ years of experience. Our priority is to provide safe volunteering and travelling programs to our volunteers.

    The Location

    We are working in Dharamshala , the home town of the DALAI LAMA. Dharamshala is situated in north India in the state of Himachal Pradesh. All the programs are arranged by us in rural areas of Dharamshala and our motive and aim is to give education to poor children and decrease the gap between rich and poor people of rural Himachal. All these programs are organized by us in the range of 10 to 25 kms of Dharamshala Town. Volunteers can join our programs for a minimum stay of 2 weeks and a maximum stay of 12 weeks which are running the whole year. Students, volunteers, couples, everyone who wants to enjoy this combination of volunteering and travelling are welcome.

    Although it can be terrifying to go to a place by yourself, I felt safe with Mohinder and Avneesh after the first day! I loved the painting in the school, the trips in the car and the food that has ruined my own cooking forever. I will miss the dogs, Mohinder's ringtone, the day and weekend trips ...
