Dagelijkse activiteiten

On arrival in the capital city Delhi, volunteers are picked up from the airport by one of our local representatives, who then transfer the volunteers to their accommodation place. A detailed orientation session is conducted on the next day by the local coordinator, during which the volunteers are explained about their project and all the upcoming tour activities, Dos and Don'ts, places to eat and shop, culture and traditions, and more. This will be followed by a city tour of Delhi, including visits to some of the most famous heritage sites in the city. 

During the Delhi leg of the trip, volunteers will be working at the Street Children Centers where they spend some quality time with children while playing with them, helping them with their school work, cook for them, teach them some new skills, help them improve their vocabulary, and more. 

After completing one week in Delhi, you will head out to Agra to visit the magnificent Taj Mahal and Agra Fort and stay in Agra for a night.Volunteers will then head to Jaipur, the Pink City of India. While in Jaipur, you will get an opportunity to volunteer for one week in Construction and Renovation Project. With this project we aim to select vulnerable schools, centers, clinics in Jaipur which don’t have enough money for renovation and send our delighted volunteers to “save” the building with their beautification or renovation skills.

Upon completing volunteer work in Jaipur, volunteers will head to the Holy City of Pushkar which is located around 3 hours drive from Jaipur. You will enjoy sightseeing and camel safari in Pushkar and stay there for one night. Next day, return back to Jaipur and end of program.

You can then head back to Delhi to take your return flight back home or take return flight from Jaipur itself.

Who we are?

Volunteering Solutions was established in 2006 with the aim of changing the face of volunteer traveling, and in the last 10 years, we have had more than 15,000 volunteers who completed their journeys with life changing experiences. Nicknamed as VolSol, we provide the best volunteer and intern opportunities to interested candidates from different parts of the world, and we ensure that each of them gets the maximum out of the program they choose.

As an organization, we have a cross-cultural set up in all our offices across the world. We have people from different countries, cultures and ethnicities working for us in order to make the process of volunteer traveling smoother and more flexible.

We have dedicated coordinators at each volunteer destination, coming from different countries.We take care of the volunteer’s placement, traveling, accommodation, meals and security. 

What we do?

Currently, Volunteering Solutions operates in more than 25 countries, providing more than 100 volunteering and interning options ranging from Child Care, Teaching, Medical and Healthcare, Community Development, Marine Conservation and much more. Most of our volunteers are high school students, couples, corporate groups and individuals on their summer break or gap year.

We are in collaboration with NGOs, schools, hospitals, orphanages, HIV/AIDS clinics, women groups and other social welfare organizations all across the globe. Each of these organizations have been working at the grassroot level for years, and successfully contributed towards the development of the concerned people. VolSol has ensured that the contribution of every volunteer is counted, and there’s sustainable growth.

Our mission/vision

Our mission is to offer the most comprehensive volunteer abroad experience to travelers from all walks of life, with a vision to promote ethical and sustainable travelling. We aim to make a difference in the lives of the unprivileged people in different parts of the world and to bridge the gap between the volunteers and the host communities to establish a 'Win-Win' situation for both.

Who are we looking for?

Travelers who are flexible in their approach, dedicated to provide their time and effort, and determined to make a difference in the society. Our volunteers come from all walks of life; be it a high school student or a retired professor. Any and everyone can join our projects, as long as they have the determination to be the part of volunteering brigade. The minimum age requirement to join our programs is 17 years, while, there's no maximum age limit. One need not have any particular degree or qualification to join our programs, and all we look for is the dedication and flexibility in the volunteer. 

Please Note: For our medical programs, volunteers need to be pre-med/medical/or certified doctors.

Why choose us?

Not only our placements are the safest, but also are one of the most affordable all over the world. Our credibility reflects from not only as a registered member of WYSE Travel Confederation, but also from the 11k+ satisfied volunteers whom we have placed in the last over a decade of our operations. 

For the internship programs, participants opting for Medical and Healthcare projects get to work with professionals and learn how to deal in emergency situations. Our internship programs are crafted and designed in a way that every participant gets to know about the medical scenario of the particular country. It is both an inward and outward journey - inward, as you’ll get to learn a lot through first hand experience, and outward, as the society will be benefitted by your contribution.

Wow. India is a place that cannot be described in words or photographs. It is a place that is not able to be compared to anywhere else in the world. My time spent in India opened my eyes to so many new experiences, and changed my outlook on my own every day life. The street children that you get to ...
I enjoyed my Volunteering trip to Surin, Thailand. The pre-departure booklet was excellent. All my queries regarded to program, location and cost were answered. I chose elephant care project in Surin and I got memorable experience on this project. I learnt to interact with the elephants, washing ...
When I look back and think about my volunteering weeks in India, a lot of memories come to my mind. Before leaving home, I was really nervous: would everything be as I had expected? Would I feel overwhelmed? And what about the cultural shock? Okay, in the first place, the cultural shock ...

2024 at Teach English to Young Monks

I stayed in Chiang Mai, Thailand, for two weeks. I really wish I could stay there more, because I had a wonderful experience and a longer program would have made it even greater. I supported a Thai teacher at Chetupon Suksa School, helping novice Buddhist monks to learn English. The kids were ...

Ook de verdere familie stond altijd klaar voor ons. We vonden het jammer dat we uiteindelijk niet zo veel dagen naar ...
