Being a #GENVOLUNTEER
Volunteers play a crucial role in supporting Generation India’s learners. We leverage the strengths of our volunteer community as they help equip the learners by sharing their professional experiences and grow together as they give back meaningfully to society. We go further, together.
Learner Testimonials
“I would like to thank Generation India for the programmes and sessions they offer. Throughout our programme, we attended guest sessions that were not only informative but also insightful. We learned about how to manage with coworkers and deal with problems that can come in our job.We also learned how to manage our money, how to keep an eye on our expenses, how to save and invest money, and how not to take debts we cannot pay. The lectures were very helpful for our future too, I’m very thankful for them.”
