Voluntary Service Overseas (VSO) is an international development charity that works through volunteers. Rather than sending instant relief in the form of food or money, VSO sends people to share their skills and experience with local communities in the developing world. These volunteers are chosen from a wide range of professionals who want the chance to make a real difference in the fight against poverty.
