Volunteering abroad not only gives us change to witness foreign land, appreciate foreign culture but experience life in a pretty local way which is never ever possible as just a tourist.
Volunteering abroad is getting popular day by day and numbers of people who opt for volunteering abroad are increasing day by day. People take some time off their hectic schedule to volunteer abroad and find some peace. Most of the people like to travel abroad. By travelling abroad we learn a lot about new culture, languages and meet new people to make friends with. So volunteering abroad is wonderful way to learn about new culture from very close which as a tourist you will never be able to experience. So why don't try volunteering while traveling and see the fun escalate higher and higher.

Volunteering abroad not only gives us change to witness foreign land, appreciate foreign culture but experience life in a pretty local way which is never ever possible as just a tourist. No matter what you want to earn out of volunteering but life changing experience will be a part of every outcome and every good deed you are going to do, you can add tourism to it as well which is the best part of volunteering. Why not choose a country which has loads to offer in terms of volunteering and travelling side by side after working hours or during weekends.

India is one such destination where you will be able to explore the country while working for a good cause. India is a country with a different experience from state to state; in terms of culture, food, language and dressing style but one thing is common everywhere that Indians are very welcoming and they treat foreigners very well and westerns are pretty safe in this country. Hence volunteers could also bring their families along with them and have a unique experience of culture and diversity. Most of the organizations provides minimum 1 weeks program placement and as long as 24 weeks placement so volunteers are free to choose the time span they want to spend while volunteering in India.

Volunteer can also choose to travel to other countries in Asia, such as Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Indonesia, Cambodia and Singapore which are some of the famous program locations in Asian continent and has loads to offer for first time visitors which will last with you for rest of your life. So plan your next holidays wisely and spend your time doing something which will affect your life in a positive way. Dual benefits are awaiting you, give volunteering tourism a shot!

  Menstrual hygiene too and how it effects mental health:  Written by volunteer-coordinator Janyl Kenenbaeva  First of all, let me introduce you what is “Menstrual Hygiene Taboo” Menstrual hygiene taboos are social and cultural restrictions, beliefs, and practices that surround menstruation and affect the way menstruating individuals are treated and how they manage their menstrual hygiene. These taboos vary widely across different cultures and societies, and they can have significant negative consequences for the physical and emotional well-being of those who menstruate. Some common menstrual hygiene taboos and the reasons behind them include: Menstruation as Impurity: In many cultures, menstruation is often viewed as impure or dirty. Menstruating individuals may be considered unclean and are sometimes excluded from participating in religious activities, entering certain places, or even cooking during their periods. Silence and Secrecy: In some societies, menstruation is surrounded by

Funding Forms A Crucial Component In NGO Sustainability

Funding forms a crucial component in not only financing any institution’s operating expenses but  also in fulfilling its desired goals. Similarly, bodies like grassroots non-governmental  organisations (NGOs), local civil society organisations and other non-profit institutions that do  not yield profits and revenues require funding to finance their day-to-day expenses and also to  sustain their zeal and commitment to bring a social transformation. Despite that, it is  disheartening to report that we at HEEALS, Gurugram have not received adequate funds in  recent years to keep us moving forward. Lack of funds poses a threat not only to our collective  performance but also to the quality of our service delivery.  Since our inception, we have always kept the community at the intersection of our goals and  policies. Over the past many years, we have diligently and wholeheartedly reached out to  thousands of people through a diverse range of campaigns such as the distribution of sanitary  p
