FRIENDSHIP WITH THE WORLD

Organization Description: 

India is one of the most over populated nations on the globe. Despite undergoing massive economic and infrastructural development over recent decades, it still suffers from extremely high levels of poverty; which result in a wide range of societal issues. Friendship with the World NGOs is located in the state of Punjab, North India. We comprise of a small group of like-minded local people. who aim to identify and place international volunteers where they are most needed: in emerging, small scale, grassroots organizations that lack the necessary means and organisation to attract and accommodate international volunteers, but would benefit greatly from outside assistance and knowledge. There are a multitude of NGOs here that are desperate for voluntary help - whether it is from skilled or unskilled volunteers. From previous experience we know how hard it is for NGOs to attract and care for volunteers from abroad, so FWTW was created with the aim for making an avenue through which international volunteers can come and offer their services. These organizations provide a wide range of programmes that address social, economic and health concerns, as well as educational and training schemes.
