A volunteer in the orphanage can do many things. Your major focus will be to take for the children in many different aspect. For instance, you’ll teach the children English and other subjects and help them understand and finish their homework. If the children are really young, you’ll teach them nursery rhymes and play games with them. You’ll also make sure they eat properly, shower and wash properly and change into clean clothes. You can help with the kitchen chores and learn to cook Indian food and clean the orphanage also.

You do not need any skills or qualifications to volunteer in an orphanage. You should however have passionate about helping the children. If you are flexible and patient you’ll cope better and successfully complete your project as working conditions and the mentality of the people will be very different from what you’re used to back home.
