Dubbed as India’s IT capital city, Bangalore is a place with a fast-growing economy. Many multinational companies put up their international office in this city. Many graduates and professional in the information technology also find great opportunities for work here.

In addition to its booming economy, the city also offers numerous natural and man made attractions. Among the must-visit attractions in the city and its surrounding areas are temples, museums, palaces and forts as well as natural attractions such as the Sankey Tank, Hesaraghatta Lake, Bugle Rock, Hebbal Lake and others.

With all the economic boom and attractions the city enjoys, it is just sad that there are also many people in the city who suffer from various economic and social problems. These are the orphans, street children and poor families. But you can help these people while getting a glimpse of the beautiful and prosperous city of Bangalore by participating in various volunteer programs offered by Volunteering India and other reputable organizations. Here are some of the top program choices:

1. English Teaching
English teaching program is one of the most in demand volunteer programs in Bangalore India as English is used as the medium of communication in many offices and establishments in the city. If you are fluent in English and are enthusiastic in teaching, you could sign up for this program and assist in teaching this subject to elementary or high school students. In this program, you will be working with a professional teacher in planning and organizing fun-filled learning activities for students.

2. Orphanage Program
If you feel that teaching is not for you, you may also sign up for the orphanage program which also caters to the needs of children but in a different way. Instead of having a formal classroom environment, you will be assigned in orphanages where you will spend your working days with children. You could play with them, help them prepare for school or make their assignments and projects, or sing songs with them. If the orphanage where you will be working in has no adequate staff members, you may also be assigned to do daily chores such as cooking, washing dishes, and cleaning the environment among others.

3. Street Children Program
The street children program has a lot of similarities with the orphanage program in terms of tasks involved. You will also help in feeding tasks as well as in cooking, cleaning and other chores. But you will be working in street children care centers where many come and go during the day instead of being housed in the center. But this all depends on the organization you are working with.
