Who are Sneha Karma Foundation’s volunteers?

A global community of students, professionals and retirees who give their skills — virtually or on the ground in India — across teaching, mentoring, fundraising, design, tech and more.

How do volunteers help?

They keep our costs low so more girls can be supported, and they bring expertise we could not otherwise afford — from grant writing to web development — directly strengthening the programmes.

See open roles under Virtual Volunteering and Onsite Volunteering , or email volunteer@snehakarma.org .

Our Volunteers | Sneha Karma Foundation

The heartbeat of our mission.

Our volunteers are the heartbeat of Sneha Karma Foundation. They are students, professionals, parents and retirees who make time in their busy schedules to give back to the community — generously, quietly and without expectation. Whether they help for a single project or stay for years, each one makes our work possible.

We could not be doing what we do without their selfless contributions. Every hour a volunteer gives is an hour a girl can spend learning, growing in confidence and moving closer to a future of her own. To every volunteer, past and present: thank you.

Meet our volunteers.

Here are some of our current and very active volunteers. It is amazing how each one makes time in a busy schedule to help give back to the community — and we could not do what we do without them.

Thank you, team.

Some volunteers who contributed significantly in the past have now joined our Ambassador program, and they continue to volunteer from time to time. We are so proud of each one of them — and of the many, many more who keep this mission moving. Thank you, Team!
