    Om programmet

    Do you like to help SMILE NGO to bring a smile to the most neglected girl children living on the street. 

    Work type: Teaching spoken English,beautician training ,art and craft training

    The project

    This project is all about bringing smile to all underprivileged refugee grown up girls from the downtrodden families of Kolkata. Providing informal basic education like english teaching, hygiene, basic health care, family planning education, playing, organising entertainment program, food distribution for these girl children of this downtrodden community would be the main target of the volunteers in this camp. Helping girls from the underprivileged community( mostly refugees) of India to get basic education, vocational and hygienic training etc. Daily more than 200+ families receiving support at our different centres around.

    Volunteer work

    Most important target of the project is to bring smile among these children and provide confidence and moral support to them. Volunteer would use different way of informal education technique to present a unique and attractive way of education programs for these kids. Most of these kids speaks local Bengali / Hindi language but they are very smart and intelligent. So teaching them with the support of local coordinator would not be so difficul, ,just little bit of patience and involvement can solve this problem easily. 

    All volunteers would go through orientation on arrival and local language session during this camp. There would also be a workshop every evening when volunteers would prepare the next day lesson plan of action. 

    Volunteers would also help local coordinator in other activities like giving shower food distribution, organising drama, story telling and entertainment games for the children. The whole camp would be run under the supervision of very experienced local project coordinator.

    Saturday and Sunday would be free days(6am-4pm) when volunteers can take rest or tour around the city or near by places. More over if anyone get a chance to live with the local host family then that brings extra bonus to any traveller. It helps to learn the culture, tradition, language while staying within the normal people of the society. Living on any hotel can never give any traveller such wide scope to know the society and communities as a whole. SMILE society always tries to give international volunteers a big scope to know about the local communities and understand the family environment. Smile Society (ngo) had started their activities since 2003 !
