PAST VOLUNTEERS
JOIN THE SCHEME
We hope you enjoy reading about the work of our volunteers. On average, it costs £4.83 to keep a VSO volunteer living and working overseas for a day. That may not sound like a vast amount, but the more money we receive the more volunteers we can keep working. If you would like to help support our volunteers, please join the scheme!
If you are already a member of the Volunteer Linking scheme perhaps you would like to make an individual gift, or increase your regular monthly gift.
This site was launched in March 2008. If you have any suggestions for how we might improve it, please email us.
Marta was working in the town of Assosa, Beneshangul Gumuz region. She was working on the education challenges in Ethiopia as part of the English Language Improvement Programme focusing on adult and girl's education. Because of security issues in Ethiopia August 2008 her placement had to be cut short.
