Press Release Body: Leeds, UK, October 10, 2008 -- Despite India's great natural
wealth and a recent economic upturn, more than 250 million people live below the
poverty line and evidence of this can be seen on every street corner. This is why
people are needed to volunteer vacation in India and help the people that the global
economy all too often leaves behind.

Volunteer vacationers can prepare for a truly unique experience in the second
largest nation on the planet. From Kashmir and the Himalayan plateau in the far
North West, to the Kolkata and the Brahmaputra Delta in the West and on down to
Kanyakumari and the holy confluence of the oceans at the Southern Cape; India is a
country of startling contrasts and exquisite variations.

Options for Volunteer Vacations in India with i-to-i (http://www.i-to-i.com):

Community work in Rural Darjeeling, India

On this unique project set against the backdrop of the rolling Darjeeling hills,
volunteers will see this beautiful country at its best. Volunteers will spend time
in the shadow of the Himalayas becoming involved in a variety of work at a local tea
plantation. They'll help to establish health and education programs for the workers
while the green fingered amongst them can learn more about the agricultural
processes used on the project.

The Community Work in Darjeeling volunteer vacation in India costs $1390 and lasts
for 3 weeks, accommodation and meals are included.

Theater and Education in Jaipur

This project is a great chance to use a love of the arts to make a big difference in
the lives of Jaipur's underprivileged children. Theater workshops help kids channel
their energies positively as well as giving volunteers a crash course in traditional
Indian folklore. Travelers don't need to be an actor to get involved; all they need
is a love of children and the energy to make this a fun and rewarding experience for
everyone.

accommodation and meals are included.
