Visit our projects in Varanasi to come closer to the reality of the families we support. Come and discover the outcome of your solidarity.

These visits are open to individuals, businesses or institutions, whether sponsors of our work or not, who wish to see with their own eyes how, thanks to the support and solidarity of our supporters and members, we are sowing a seed of hope among poor children in Varanasi, thus improving their lives in a direct and real way.

Visit program

The visit lasts around 3 or 4 hours and includes lunch. After collecting the visitors at a meeting point, the tour starts off by visiting the school Learning Point. Then, we move on to the marginal district of Bazaar Biha, where Seed for Change will shortly initiate the schooling project ‘Hope’. After stopping to have lunch in a restaurant on the way, you are taken back to the center of the city, where you will see our nutritional program and the extracurricular activities of the children that benefit from our project ‘Escuela’.

Our guide speaks English and Hindi and can act as an interpreter if you wish to make questions to the children or visited families.

Planning your visit

You can visit any day in the week except for Sunday, when schools are closed. You must notify us of the date and number of visitors so that we can organize the logistics of the visit, and we inform you of the meeting point and the detailed program of visit. If you wish to visit a sponsored child, please let us know in advance so that their family is informed and available on the date.

Lodging and trip planning is up to the visitor. However, should you require any guidance, read the FAQ section below, or do contact us at visits@seedforchange.org.
