What does it mean to volunteer through Omprakash?
Omprakash was founded in 2004 as an alternative option for individuals wanting to volunteer abroad but uninterested in the expensive, highly-structured trips offered by most “middleman” organizations. Our free database of volunteer opportunities enables volunteers from around the world to connect directly with our Partners, and to determine collaboratively when, how, and where they can serve. If you want to volunteer, start by browsing our database and exploring the volunteer opportunities offered by our diverse Partners. To broaden your understanding of our Partners, you can read the “stories” written by that Partner and by the volunteers who have served it. When you find an opportunity that meets your interests and abilities, you can contact that Partner directly and begin working out the logistics of your volunteering experience. You can also contact past and present volunteers in our network to seek advice and other forms of support.
