Overall, very good. We loved our placement and felt that we had enough information before we went, although as I have said, we also found out a lot in our first few days in the village. Thank you!

HELP is a lean and transparent organization that is focused on providing help to Nepali and Indian institutions with a minimum of bureaucratic froufrou. In Nepal, I met volunteers working through other organizations, and they were astounded at the minimum fuss and money that volunteering through HELP entailed. I found HELP though an Internet search. They looked like the best organization through which to volunteer, and I now believe they are the best.

…I have had the privilege of living and meeting lots of Ladhakis that have taught me very valuable lessons. I had to get out of my comfort zone and learn all about this new culture and that helped me to open my mind and be more flexible with different cultures, religions and opinions. It has been a truly rewarding and unforgettable experience.
It´s hard to summarise such a great experience in a few lines. It was the first time I participated in this kind of volunteering programs so I didn´t know what to expect but if I look back now, it has been one of the most rewarding things I´ve ever done in my life.…

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF HELP?: A charity far and away from volun-tourism.
WHAT DID YOU GET OUT OF THE EXPERIENCE PERSONALLY?: It was both a hugely rewarding and challenging experience. I learned a lot of my abilities as a language teacher (and not a small amount about patience too). I felt truly immersed in a small Ladakhi community and feel confident that I helped in my own small way.
