Volunteers For Educational Support and Learning · 10 April 2013

VESL is a small charity run by a dedicated team of past volunteers. We run worthwhile well-supported educational projects in the neediest communities in Thailand, Sri Lanka & India. Our volunteers help rural schools teach English, support orphanages, hospices & community development projects.

Story

I've set up this page because I plan to visit Kerala, India this summer to teach English to children and young adults in schools which are understaffed and in need of support. The decline of the traditional fishing community in this area has led to a greater need for locals to learn English to further their employment opportunities. VESL volunteers work alongside a local NGO to promote community development and improve the life prospects of the local people.

Any donation would be much appreciated and goes towards a great cause!
