Positive Footprints - India

INDIA | Tuesday, 10 February 2009 | Views [1015] | Comments [1]

I was lucky enough to be a volunteer on this World Expeditions community project - repairing a school in Jambha Village, Rajasthan.

Having never travelled to India before and being a relatively new Mum, it was a surreal and very rewarding experience to be travelling on my own, and camping in the desert in Rajasthan!

Our team worked on a neglected yet vital school in Jambha village in scorching temperatures(although when I inquired why there were no snakes around, I was told it was only Winter and they come out when it heats up in Summer!) to help send a message on the importance of education, particularly in rural India.

The project was funded by many people via micro donations through the Footprints Network.

I hope you enjoy our story.
