Volunteer
If you are looking for a place to challenge yourself, well than this is the place. This place is strictly for emotionally strong, self motivated and committed people. The great thing about our activities is that you will have the flexibility to choose your role - a Caregiver, Photographer, Researcher, Councilor, outreach worker Friend, Trainer, Content Developer, Fundraiser and even Crèche Teacher.
A half-day long orientation will be provided to the Volunteers. The organization will provide the food and accommodation on request on minimum cost basis.
Join With Us Volunteer
We invite Volunteers from around the world help us to empower women and children from oppressed communities in South India.
If you are a committed individual who wants to make a big impact in PSDF working areas is a great place to volunteer. We are an ambitious community based organization that aims to bring about large-scale positive change for women. That is we want to work with people who share our commitment, and are able to put great ideas for improving our work into practice.
How you can help
We are open to receiving volunteers from all backgrounds and with varying levels of experience.
Volunteer trainers are crucial to our child care programmmes. They only need to be interest in child care education.
We also work with professional volunteers. They use their experience and skills to develop our organization and improve our programmes. Past professional volunteers have helped us to design projects, write fund rising applications, and developed marketing and communication strategies.

Our Expectation
Volunteers willing to support our child care programme must be available for a minimum of two weeks. However, professional or specialist volunteers stay for a minimum of one month and up to one year. Proficiency in English is essential. Tamil speakers are welcome, as some of our beneficiaries cannot speak English. We do not ask for any financial donations from volunteers, but we cannot cover volunteers’ costs, such as accommodation and travel.

On arrival, volunteers can expect full support from PSDF. We will help to make all the arrangements you need for a comfortable and productive stay. This includes finding accommodation, travel booking and leisure time recommendations and planning. We also provide lunch.
