Title
IVCS - Indian Volunteers for Community Service - sustainable development and voluntary work in India
Description
IVCS has been established for over 20 years. It was formed in May 1981 to encourage young people from the West to experience rural India. The following year it was registered as a charity with the Charities Commission of the UK.
IVCS raises funds to support small self-help projects in India, with the intention of contributing towards sustainable human development. In particular, IVCS supports a rural development project in the village of Amarpurkashi in Uttar Pradesh, northern India.
IVCS is run voluntarily by people of all ages and backgrounds, many of whom have spent time at a rural development project in India.
