Volunteer in India in Social Work

Pyunli is a non-government organization based in Gauchar, India that aims to make meaningful changes in child education and women empowerment. Pyunli is inspired by the noble tradition of ‘service before self’. Pyunli began with just high spirits, but soon became a catalyst for change by helping local children gain quality education regardless of their economic or social backgrounds. Pyunli also focuses on community development, especially among women. By providing various skill development workshops among other resources, women are more empowered to be self-sustainable.
