WhozTale is a family-run initiative in Kolkata, India, offering volunteers a unique opportunity to engage in both community service and hospitality management. The program is structured into two main components:​

1. Teaching at a Local NGO: Volunteers spend approximately 15 days teaching and managing underprivileged children at an NGO located on the outskirts of Kolkata. This role involves conducting various educational activities aimed at boosting the children’s morale and confidence. During this period, volunteers are provided with accommodation and authentic local meals by the NGO. 2. Assisting at the Family-Run Hostel: For about 3 days, volunteers stay with the host family in Kolkata, assisting in managing their budget hostel. Tasks may include guest relations, room decoration, organizing group activities, general cleaning, and household assistance. In return, volunteers receive accommodation and homemade meals.
