Spotlight on Country Manager Stephen

Summer is upon on us and our program in India is an excellent service opportunity for those looking for a summer adventure! You offer the "extra" attention many children crave and deserve, while also experiencing life in the spiritual land of India - with its diverse languages, culture, and lifestyles. Despite this awesome opportunity, many prospective volunteers worry about the intense experience offered in Chennai.

Our solution is our most talented and knowledgeable Country Manager Stephen who ensure a safe, meaningful and enriching experience for all Global Volunteers. Please read below and enjoy volunteer evaluations from a Summer 2010 volunteer team. Stephen is a true gem and invaluable member of the Global Volunteers team!
