"The orphanage has been an amazing experience during my summer program. I feel like I am helping the kids as much as they have helped me and taught me. I have enjoyed the sightseeing. The house and the food were fantastic. The staff at Sankalp was very supportive and always ready to help. I was really lucky that I worked with Sankalp. Thanks for giving me such a wonderful opportunity."
