Volunteer in india
October 4-13, 2019
to help us create a marketing strategy and a website to support children with disabilities in India.
Children with disabilities have very few facilities and supports in India. A hospital staff worker whose son had cerebral palsy started the Anugrah project in 2002. The Anugrah program walks alongside people affected by disabilities and their families, and as the children have grown, so has the program. The Anugruh project currently supports 120 children and their families on a regular basis and focuses on developing skills and empowering persons with disabilities while also promoting acceptance within communities.
The Anugrah team is in desperate need of a website. This tool will help them attract new volunteers, fundraise to continue to support children with disabilities, and tell their story.
build the strategic objectives for the website build by listening to Anugrah, interviewing community members and going into the field to see the work they are doing
based on the strategic direction for the website, the team will build wireframes to agree on style and layout in collaboration with Anugrah
spend time in the field to interview staff, stakeholders, beneficiaries and children benefiting from Anugrah’s services
write, edit and populate the pages of Anugrah’s Website
develop a wordpress website to house all the information gathered and give Anugrah a web presence to share their mission
We want to make sure that the Anugrah team is able to manage and edit the website after the team leaves

Yes, when you commit to joining a volunteer opportunity, Venture 2 Impact will give you access to your own fundraising page on https://donate.venture2impact.org. Through our website, you can raise funds, donate towards the project and track your donations.
Our model is grounded in connecting your skills with need that exists in communities that can’t access those skills or can’t afford to pay for them. As an educated and skilled professional, we believe that you should use your energy and volunteering time to share those skills and create a resilient community … rather than the alternative, which is usually going abroad to do something that’s not related to your skills at all (building a structure, painting something, etc).
