Volunteer Testimonials

My internship at the MMC centres was a profound journey into the heart of educating the children of migrant workers. It provided me with invaluable practical experience and insights into the nuances of teaching that I will carry forward into my future pursuits.

The lessons learned here about the importance of teacher’s presence, theme – based teaching, and interactive teaching methods will undoubtedly shape my life perspectives in years to come.

“A bright and happy space”

Our art workshops with MMC are a delight. The children are overjoyed to see the Know Your Art team. They remember all our previous workshops with great enthusiasm and are always eager to learn more. The kids at MMC take great pride in all that they do. We are humbled to be associated with the MMC.

Mrs. Rishita Chandra, “Know Your Art” Team

We have been associated with MMC for last couple of years and the organisation does an amazing job. It takes huge effort to organise educational programmes and build a partnership between 2 schools. It’s our proud privilege to be a partner of this organisation.

I feel extremely lucky to have been able to volunteer at MMC for 10 months. I was welcomed with open arms by everyone at the organisation despite not being able to speak Hindi or Marathi. I learnt so much during my time at MMC; from the state of education in India and the nutritional needs of young children to the legal obstacles that migrant workers face.  MMC is a phenomenal non-profit working tirelessly to provide education, healthcare, and nutrition to children of migrant workers living on construction sites. The staff is extremely dedicated and have a deep understanding of the lives and struggles of migrant labourers in Mumbai. I am forever grateful for the opportunity I had to work with MMC, it was an amazing experience of both personal and professional growth.

I began my yearlong volunteer fellowship with Mumbai Mobile Creches a mere two days after arriving in Mumbai. Over the course of the next ten months, I saw my brilliant and dedicated colleagues at MMC do incredible work to help children on Mumbai’s construction sites access the care and education they deserve. One trip to a construction site with an MMC daycare center is all it takes to realize the value of the organization’s work; the children are learning, laughing, and getting the chance to live like kids.

Each day in the office was an absolute pleasure, as it can be only in an office full of generous, spirited, and thoughtful men and women. I learned about education and issues surrounding the rights of migrant workers, but I also learned about Indian culture. Working at MMC was more than a chance to participate in groundbreaking work in the fields of education and human rights—it was an opportunity to learn from inspirational children, teachers, and colleagues as they worked to make Mumbai a better and more just city.
