More than 50% of our volunteers are 18-25 years old and parents often get worried for their children irrespective of their age. Especially, when it comes to travelling to India, the tensions can increase because the international media pictures India as a country where 5 star all inclusive trip can be a challenge if not planned well. No worries, ImpAct sister organisation STEP Beyond Borders professional team has it all covered! As a female-run team, they take care of the safety and security aspect in a special way.
After completing the registration to a program and the first deposit, the volunteer receives a detailed guide-book as a brochure to prepare for the trip.

Our team is available for calls on working days but for the registered volunteers we schedule Skype or Zoom calls for pre-arrival orientation to answer to your questions and for you to meet us virtually before you join our warm family in India.
