We are located in Mc Leod Ganj, Dharamsala in Northern India.
It is a truly amazing town, set among the beautiful foothills of the Himalayas.
It is a world center of Tibetan Buddhism, home to the Dalai Lama & 30,000 Tibetan refugees.

● Highly motivated, friendly, enthusiastic and grateful students.

● Supportive and relaxed working environment

● Many opportunities for Buddhist teachings, hiking, yoga, day trips, meditation classes, language studies, other volunteering, dining out and much more!

● We cannot pay volunteers. We do not charge them anything and we provide some day trips, but we ask volunteers to meet their own expenses.

● We take the volunteers for a day excursion twice a semester.

Accommodation Facilities:

Earlier we used to provide accommodation to our volunteers for 3 months stay with a local room rent. However, we are extremely sorry for this year as we cannot provide accommodation due to COVID 19 protocols. Hence, selected volunteer is requested to look for the accommodation by themselves.

We will also consider candidates with significant experience in different but related to teaching fields, & newly qualified teachers if they are particularly interested in our community.

We prefer people who can commit for the whole semester.
