	This placement would suit... Those interested in Sport, Drama, Music or just making a difference to a child's life. The headquarters of this organisation is a lively place in downtown Bangalore, where you will spend most of your time  jetting around the city to get to the various programs. With years of experience behind them this organisation has been a huge catalyst for social change in Bangalore. The organisation works with several local institutions, such as foster homes, slum schools, and an HIV hospice, to improve the life skills of the children and give them a chance to grow in confidence and have fun. Volunteering with this project gives you the freedom and flexibility to concentrate on any particular activity that inspires you - whether drama, teaching English, sports, arts and crafts or outdoor activities. Your time will be split between managing programmes (in conjunction with the project’s staff) and actively participating in them. So you spend about half your time in the project offices and the other half out and about with the kids. This project relies heavily on the work of volunteers. As well as other GapGuru volunteers, you will also be working alongside young, local people who give up some of their time to help. The great thing about volunteering in this project is that the work is so lively and varied. And by spending a lot of time with the children, you get to see how your work has an impact on their lives. 0845 344 7515 GapGuru is a specialist organisation providing exciting gap year opportunities exclusively in India.
