Beat the heat in May, volunteer in Ladakh

The Ladakhi organisation SECMOL wants volunteers in May and June for their youth camps. It'll be cool there while it's very hot down on the plains of India. Look at www.secmol.org

Wishing to Volunteer at SECMOL

Hi,

Myself and my partner are very interested in volunteering with SECMOL throughout May and June. We arrive in Mumbai at the end of April and would be happy to travel directly to SECMOL if we can be assured that our presence is welcome. We both have applicable skills and genuine interest and feel we would be great contributers. I have emailed SECMOL directly but am aware that their internet is not reliable and have not received a reply after three weeks. Has anyone had any luck with contacting them re 'summer camp'?

Thanks
