We are running a center in Jaipur for the Women Empowerment to provide basic education, skills development, training program & to generate income source for the women living in rural areas like slum, villages and the women living in an object poverty. In 2010 - With the help of our team members and local NGO's we have built Women Empowerment Center in Jaipur where every day many women are getting benefit from our program. Every women and juvenile girls that come to our center adopt a good basic education and training program. Be that as it may, we have some other training programs for women such as stitching work, beautician course, drawing and henna paint. Having empowered the women in such training program they can be independent on their own by using it to find job or better still start their own business in India. On education level, we make sure every women has a basic English speaking language along with mathematics because of the fact that English is well accepted globally as a way of effective communication. Many of the women who attend our center even do not know how to write or read; attending our everyday classes help them a lot. We also offers the program on one on one or group discussion in order to rub minds together within themselves.The number of women which attend the project each day varies, in our center we get around 50 women and children – although we are constantly reaching out to the local community to encourage more women to attend. This project also offer space for the children which live near by to attend free education classes from our center. Some of the women bring their children along to the sessions and volunteers can help look after their children whilst the women are learning. By Volunteer in India in this program , you will join a devoted team of international volunteers helping with sustainable women’s empowerment program.Women Empowerment Volunteer is a worldwide topic, but it is tremendously required in India. The new India and the old India are still isolated in its musings. Nonetheless, the battle for correspondence begins with the right kind of support and education. A great deal of women empowerment is working towards strengthening of women in India. The project give charitable effort chances to International volunteers to come and help women in whichever way. As a Volunteer your work in Women Empowerment Program will help women get the kind of introduction and autonomy they require.

I had the opportunity to spend 4 weeks with the association, working in two different settings. First, I worked in a school, where I provided academic support to teenagers. Then, I joined a beauty school where women were training for careers in aesthetics. Personally, this experience was enriching.

Personally, this experience was enriching. However, I’m not an English teacher but rather a business and marketing trainer, I was still able to share my expertise with some women
On the other hand, I want to highlight the quality of the association’s hospitality, as well as the weekend excursion offerings and the comfort of the guest house. These aspects undoubtedly contributed to making my stay enjoyable.
I chose the women's empowerment programme because I wanted to come into contact with Indian girls and women - especially from the slums of Jaipur - and understand more about their world, their lives, their expectations, their difficulties and their dreams. The two weeks I worked in the programme were very enriching for me. The girls who attend the six-month course at the NGO Veeneta Society are trained to become dress makers and/or beauticians.

I chose the women’s empowerment programme because I wanted to come into contact with Indian girls and women – especially from the slums of Jaipur – and understand more about their world, their lives, their expectations, their difficulties and their dreams. The two weeks I worked in the programme were very enriching for me. The girls who attend the six-month course at the NGO Veeneta Society are trained to become dress makers and/or beauticians. I attended their practical lessons, helping where needed, and I was their teacher in the English lessons. With a great dedication the girls made me the beauty treatments they had learnt in their course. Despite the language barriers between us (there was always a Hindi-English language mediator with me, to help in case of any misunderstanding) we shared bits and pieces of our lives. I also had the honour of handing diplomas to the girls who had completed the six-month course. The festive moments were unforgettable for me, the girls performed traditional Rajasthan dances. All in all, I highly recommend this experience.
Spending each day in the womens program gave me an amazing opportunity to learn about the indian culture as well as the womens needs and situation. Teaching English and math was so much fun thanks to the womens enthusiasm and strong will to study and move forward. We were also able to put together a First aid Box with them and play the guitar. So great to see how strong and open they are and how important this program it is for them.
My volunteer program lasted 4 weeks in Jaipur, India. I spent 2 weeks in the women's support program and 2 weeks in the hospital. Both were very enriching experiences for me. The girls and women were incredibly open-minded and inquisitive. They were interested in and implemented everything that was offered to them. First and foremost, they want to learn English. Any form of teaching is welcome, whether role-playing, singing and translating English songs or face-to-face at the blackboard. It was a lot of fun to see how quickly they learn.... Read More

Both were very enriching experiences for me.
The girls and women were incredibly open-minded and inquisitive. They were interested in and implemented everything that was offered to them. First and foremost, they want to learn English. Any form of teaching is welcome, whether role-playing, singing and translating English songs or face-to-face at the blackboard.
It was a lot of fun to see how quickly they learn.
In return, I got traditional make-up, beautiful braided hairstyles or henna tattoos on my hands and feet. It was a very warm and unforgettable time.
The work in the hospital was very touching, as people came with problems and pain and needed help.
The doctor’s idealistic commitment means that even the poor population can receive very good treatment. They couldn’t afford a normal hospital.
So they only pay a small fee and only those who can afford it pay. The doctor works on a voluntary basis.
The treatments mostly consisted of infusions, acupuncture with electrotherapy, cupping treatments, stretching and the administration of medication. The doctor also makes his own Ayurvedic medicine.
I was very impressed by his efficiency and was able to learn a lot.
As a physiotherapist, I was able to alleviate the pain in some patients.
All of this left a lasting, deep impression on me.
Perhaps it was a start for me to further projects of this kind.
I would like to thank the organization again for making this possible for me. Sukret, my local coordinator, responded immediately when there were questions or problems. They were solved immediately.
Shekhar, my driver and “bodyguard”, drove me everywhere extremely reliably, picked me up again and showed me a bit of the area.
Perhaps it is still possible to get a small handout about the work in the projects beforehand so that you can prepare better.
However, I was integrated quickly.
My accommodation at Boby Mansion Homestay was a blessing because, as a woman travelling alone, I enjoyed family contact with all the care that comes with it. I felt very safe and secure in a foreign world.
During August I volunteered for three weeks with the Women’s Empowerment Program and the School Program. Volunteering for an extended period of time meant I was able to build strong relationships with the women and children. Most of the time was spent teaching English, however, the programs are flexible which means you can contribute knowledge and skills based upon your own background and strengths. I was able to draw upon my own resources (nutrition, yoga) and I would encourage this for future volunteers - if you have teaching resources/activities/games from... Read More

I was able to draw upon my own resources (nutrition, yoga) and I would encourage this for future volunteers – if you have teaching resources/activities/games from your home country, bring them with you! The home stay accomodation was AMAZING. The family treated me as one of their own, sharing safe, local advice and including me in activities such as visiting the temple, the cinema and a theme park! My favourite part of the stay was playing with the children and helping cook meals. I recommend Volunteering with India for those who want to experience an authentic Indian lifestyle.
Volunteering with India is a really good organization. I applied for women empowerment project and I had my best time. The organization helps you a lot before and during your stay. Sukret is very patient and answers your questions quickly. The girls are very kind and sociable and welcomed me with enthusiasm.

I lived for two weeks with an Indian family at the Prity guest house. They are really nice people, the food was great and the room very clean.
I am really happy to have done this experience with volunteering with india, and i will surely miss the girls so much!
This is such a fulfilling program and I recommend it to anyone looking to help equip disadvantaged women / children with the skills and information they need to get by in the world. The females in the program very eager and excited to learn from the volunteers, which makes the experience all the more fun and uplifting!

Jaipur is a wonderful city and there was so much to see during my off time – it was a great experience!
This is unlike anything I have ever done before. I volunteered for one week with my adult daughter and we had a great time. India is so vibrant and colorful. The girls we met on the project were lovely and welcomed us into the group.

Although the accommodation was basic, there were comfortable beds, clean sheets and air conditioning in the room. I would recommend this to anyone and encourage you to take every opportunity that is offered to allow yourself a truly immersive experience where you get to see the real India!
It was an incredible experience! I had so much fun with all the girls and had the best time at the school. I wish I could join this program for longer period of time at least for 4 weeks. It doesn’t feel like enough time to make an impact. Apart from that it was great
This experience was definitely worth it, as a person that lives in europe, the lifestyle is completely different but very interesting. Working with the women was awesome, they always wanted to learn new things and were really happy to spend some time with us. The other part of this experience was to discover a new culture and visit some temple or cities like Delhi or Agra with the Taj Mahal that was wonderful.

My wife and I volunteered for 1 week for the women empowerment program. As most of the women were learning to become tailors and / or beauticians / hairdressers, we took the opportunity to share with them our experiences working for product companies in the hair & beauty industry. The overall experience was positive and we really got the chance to interact deeply with the locals.

The overall experience was positive and we really got the chance to interact deeply with the locals. I think having more hands on skills (like sewing, or hairdressing or skin therapy, massage or any other practical training) would have supported the group of women more. English and maths were some of the other areas, were we tried to support. The program gives you a chance to bring your own skills and knowledge to the table, which is great. However, I would have also liked to receive more direction from the organisation on how we could deliver most impact. Something to keep in mind and to ask prior to starting the program. All the staff at the organisation were very welcoming and made are stay enjoyable. However, we would have liked to learn more about how we could truly support the locals to deliver more impact. Our host family was great and really made us feel at home.
I had an amazing time with the association and the kids. The women were so happy about our presence and give us a really warm welcome. They were really happy to learn english and math but also to show us their beauty or stitching class. The city is beautiful and the culture is also very incredible.

Sukret, the manager welcomed me although I am already 73 years old and so I stayed in Jaipur from altogether six weeks.
For the first 2 weeks I joined the Medical Program and then 4 weeks the Project „Women’s Empowerment. And this was the project in which I was in the right place. I taught English and the contact with the young girls and women showed me so much about life in India, especially the life of women.
I had booked my own accomodation in Jaipur where I was picked up for the project and dropped off at the hotel again. Sometimes it was by Tuk Tuk and sometimes by car with the most reliable drivers, Totaram and Shekar. They took me safely through this incredible Jaipur traffic.
Rohit the coordinator was caring for me and the other volunteers, for our safety, for our well-being in the projects and for the sightseeing weekends. He was always helpful when I needed something. This could be an information any time or just 50 samosas and 50 sweets for my farewell party. Thank you Rohit.
In my opinion „Volunteering with India“ is a reliable organisation which looks after their volunteers. This was not only important for me, but it is even more important for teenagers and young adults, especially when they are away from home for the first time in a completely different culture like India.
All in all I can say, due to the good and careful organisation these 6 weeks have been a really precious experience for me.
The women project is extremely worthwhile and a lot of fun. Though it can be tricky to communicate with those with limited English, this can be overcore. I would thoroughly recommend this project to anybody looking to genuinely make a difference. I had planned to travel to Jaipur with 2 of my friends. We have research for many agencies through online but VWI best in the area. The accommodation service was good and the food was very nice.

They are adorable and fun to work with.

This program has many options and I can say my presence in women center was helpful. I choose only 1 week but its short time to do all the activities with them; I wish to come soon and join min 4 weeks. I got to see Taj Mahal and many other beautiful locations on my weekend in Jaipur.
