iSPiiCE

Registered as a Charitable Trust iSPiiCE introduce volunteers to teach English, care give and develop educational activities as part of our sustainable community projects.

iSPiiCE Volunteer Programs have been set up to assist local schools, children's Day Care Centres and Women's Empowerment groups. We endeavor to directly contribute to genuine community development in the project areas we operate and offer after school English lessons and IT skills training to teenagers.

Increasingly, westerners with the available time and desire to travel to India, are looking beyond traditional circuits in search of meaningful and socially responsible opportunities for travel, service and cultural exchange. At the same time, institutions and organizations throughout India suffer from staffing and funding shortages, poor administration and a general lack of accountability.

iSPiiCE sits in between these groups of people and offers a real opportunity for personal connection and the possibility for volunteers to honor their desire to give service to the less fortunate and interact in meaningful ways with people from a different cultural setting; whilst helping local institutions supplement staffing, build self reliance and increased accountability and exposure to members of different cultures.

iSPiiCE Volunteer Programs provide you with the chance to combine your volunteering activities with travel in India. We offer excursions to world famous sites, including a Himalayan trek, the Taj Mahal Experience and a trip to the Golden Temple in Amritsar, all of which are included in the program fee.
