HELP International Summer India

Program Description

Intern with HELP International and make a difference while earning an internship credit. We partner with local organizations that work to combat poverty and the detrimental effects of this within affected communities. You will have the option of interning for five weeks, ten weeks, or fifteen weeks since each wave lasts five weeks. These projects include teaching, construction, aiding with water sanitation, gardening, and spreading education outreaches about hygiene.

Not only will you impact local communities, you will also have the opportunity to tour around. Imagine seeing the Taj Mahal! You will be working in slums, often with women and children.

Highlights

“India is vibrant and rich and full of life. It completely changed my perspective on life. I loved working in the slums, particularly with the women and the children.
