Sankalp Volunteer Society India

Working with Sankalp Shake Hands has been a rewarding and wonderful experience. The programme is well run, and it is an organisation solely focused on changing the lives of the people they are working with. The children are amazing, so eager to learn, well behaved and loving. Pranay and Amita are supportive and welcoming and the volunteer house feels like a home from home. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and it really is a great organisation and a fantastic way of seeing India and working within a community. I have learned so much during my time here and I only hope I was able to make an effective impact on the children's lives. I would without a doubt recommend Sankalp as it is a brilliant organisation focused on improving the children's lives and it offers a safe working environment and the chance to live and work with other volunteers.

I had a great experience working with the Women Empowerment Program. It was challenging with the language barrier but ultimately this was an incredibly positive experience & I'm glad I was able to volunteer. I loved working with young women and I enjoyed their company. It was great fun teaching them the song "Hoky Pokie".
The food was delicious & the house was beautiful. During the hot season it was nice to have Air Conditioner. The Staff was incredible friendly & welcoming. I felt comfortable asking question & expressing concerns. I would definitely recommend Sankalp to others. It was a great experience for me.
