You can help send more volunteers overseas to work in partnership to alleviate poverty. Volunteers give their time but volunteering isn't free.
Whether you walk or run you can join us to raise awareness and funds about Cuso International's global volunteer movement. Come out with your family, friends, children and grandchildren!
By joining the team you play a role in helping more girls receive an education; more youth and women accessing secure livelihoods; unheard voices will be heard; and many more will have access to basic health care.
Every $1 raised is leveraged 9 times, thanks to our agreement with the Canadian International Development Agency! $10 becomes $100. $25 becomes $250. $100 becomes $1,000. And so on!
Runners or walkers who raise $500 or more will receive a Free Race Registration and be entered in a draw to win tickets where Porter Airlines flies in North America.
Since 1961, over 15,000 have become Volunteers for the World — help continue this vital work by joining our Run for the World Team.
Cuso International has over 250 volunteers overseas right now. Volunteers work alongside our partner organizations on local and national projects to help improve the quality of life for men, women and children in some of the poorest countries in the world. They share their professional skills and experiences with local colleagues so their impact continues long after the volunteers have returned home.
Our placements support solutions in six focus areas:
Our volunteers live at the heart of the community they serve with a living stipend and comparable accommodation to their local co-workers. Questions? Please contact Jessica at 647-478-4089 or email: run@cuso-vso.org.
