I wouldn't recommend this organization to any foreign person who's counting on them for the accommodation and who has never been to India before. The flat for foreign volunteers is a separate "business" ran by its British owner. The rent is insanely high for renting out a shared room in Delhi. And the rent is insanely unacceptable when the owner and someone who manages the flat forgets about the volunteer who's been assured that there was going to be a bed ~2 months in advance. When the volunteer is forgotten no one reaches out, no one cares enough to think of any solution or at least how to make it up. On a day of moving there I (a foreign girl all alone in a city I'd never lived in before and carrying a heavy luggage to keep me some company) was left to deal with their mistake on my own. They could let me in only 10 days later. Till then - "buh-bye". When the time finally came the stay was so "fancy" that it was actually cheaper to stay in a hotel. The volunteering part was fine.
