VOLUNTEERING ACTIVITIES

Volunteering Activities

In the recent times, Ladakh has been on its path towards overall development. A major contribution to this progressiveness has been from the intensive volunteer work received from all parts of the country and abroad. People from around the globe have put forth a helping hand in making Ladakh considerably advanced in all aspects while keeping the roots of its cultural heritage intact.

While on your visit to this heavenly site, you can also be a part of some soul-satisfying volunteering activities. Volunteering, as a social tool, has helped a lot of backward areas gain pace with the modern times. As for such opportunities in Ladakh, you may want to work with families in creating awareness about healthy lifestyle choices. This type of assistance would rather be of the informal type. Formal volunteer work can be opted for by becoming a part of the innumerable Non-governmental organisations that have popped up in Ladakh in the recent decade. Another area where you can march in to help would be teaching in the monasteries. With your expertise in a particular subject, you can share your knowledge of the same with young lamas and help them gain additional information apart from the inspirational writings of the religious texts.

It never hurts to help someone in need by actually getting to work on-site and experiencing the actual joy of making someone’s life better. Fill in your life with a stock of good deeds. The store of karma never gets full with them!
