Testimonials
“Volunteering with SPID was an experience I will never forget. I learned so much about India, and was able to contribute to the important work done by SPID and the wonderful people who work there. I will always be grateful for my time working with SPID and to the people at SPID for welcoming me into their community.

“Through my internship at Society for Participatory Integrated Development, I’ve had the chance to work with students from the SMART Vocational Training program and observe the course of their education in skill development. I have witnessed many students grow in their confidence level, in their way of addressing others and in their overall professional skills. They have successfully progressed from students to young adults ready for the job market. One of the biggest achievements for the teachers as well as I is witnessing cheery students arrive at the centre after successfully passing their first interview and getting the job.”
