Volunteer in India

Discover a meaningful way to donate your time through free volunteering in India.

India is an assault on the senses.

A subcontinent of spiritual beliefs and ancient traditions; sumptuous spiced food and splendid architecture that will blaze brightly in your memory long after you’ve left.

But it is a place that also tends to deeply affect visitors. The stark inequity between rich and poor leaves people wondering what they can do to help.

We know this from experience because India is where SlumAid started. Over two decades later, we’re proud to have built strong partnerships with a small but mighty selection of NGOs and projects supporting people living in India’s slums.
