    Australian Volunteers International

    We don’t recruit volunteers from all countries

    If you are living in a country other than those above, unfortunately you will not be able to volunteer with VSO. This is because as a charity, we must make the greatest use of our limited financial resources and therefore can only recruit those living within one of our 7 recruitment base areas.
