hey everyone,
going to india in july with a friend for around two months. i am desperately looking for a charity organisation (preferably working with kids) somewhere in kerala (preferably on the coast - doesn't everybody??) to do some volunteering. i would very much appreciate if somebody can help me out on that one... the internet doesn't spit out too much.
cheers

i have spent four months working for a charity in Kerala, one of those listed above. Before you commit yourself check things out very carefully. Ask around there are many who have gone before. if anyone would like more specific information email me by all means.
