I learned a lot about India, about people, and children and about myself. I’ve seen some amazing things happening with the children in the orphanage e.g. magic show, first step, big changes in personality. The children are very sweet and resilient. I hope they grow up to have an independent and wonderful life! They deserve much love and attention.

I have enjoyed participating in the orphanage volunteer work program. I love working with children and I really had a good time talking care of them, playing with them…I think these children have a great time when volunteer visit them, that’s why I think this program is really necessary for them, because this way they disconnect and “break the routine.
