Voluntary Service Oversea (VSO) is the registered charity dedicated to assisting
development in the world’s poor countries. It is an independent non- sectarian organisation.
VSO is a direct response to an urgent need. Each year about 450 volunteers are sent to work
on projects in 36 developing countries. Each volunteer goes overseas in response to a
specific appeal from a developing country. Over the past 23 years more than 20,000
volunteers have worked abroad with VSO. Together they have contributed over 30,000 man-
years to development.
But VSO volunteers gain as well as give. They gain responsibility, experience and a
personal viewpoint on development. On their return they can make an effective contribution
to the development debate. Above all, VSO is aid that the Third World needs. For this
reason the Third World countries themselves pay almost half the cost of each VSO
volunteer.
