VTSeva – Volunteering Together For Service

VT Seva organization was established in 2008 in US, with a mission to empower the youth with values of volunteerism, and to reach out the underprivileged people around the world. We provide a platform for enthusiastic volunteers, especially youth, to take leadership roles and execute service projects in their communities.

VT Seva is all about Youth! We recognize that Happy Volunteers are the key to success for this Organization’s mission. VT Seva addresses the need to bring the youth and adults to one cause, one vision, one mission, and one organization by bridging the gap between youth and adult volunteers.

VT Seva youth are taking leadership roles in team building, group projects, planning, organizing and executing events to support organization’s mission. Volunteering Together, as a team, as an organization, regardless of our age/skills/experience, we work passionately and enthusiastically towards VT’s vision, making a great difference in our Communities and our World.
