VSO

Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO) is a non-profit organisation that helps poverty struck areas by sending dedicated volunteers to achieve community goals, like better healthcare, more valuable education and broader opportunities. They are always looking for people to volunteer abroad to help these struggling areas. "Our volunteers, supporters, programme, corporate and institutional partners, who share so generously in order that lives might be transformed around the world."

"VSO brings people together to fight poverty.

Our unique role in international development is to place committed volunteers with carefully selected organisations so their skills generate the greatest value.

We know, from almost sixty years of experience, that when teachers pass on their skills to others, community groups shown reliable sources of income, and governments helped to make systems fairer, this brings about lasting change."
