Monthly donations

Abass Koroma (Sierra Leone - Secure livelihoods)

People living in disadvantage need the skills that will help them escape poverty. We help people help themselves.

That’s why CUSO-VSO shares skills, and changes lives.

CUSO-VSO would be grateful if you considered becoming a sustaining donor through monthly giving. This way, you ensure the greatest possible impact from your donation.

And because we only contact sustaining donors once or twice a year, you'll receive less mail – and we save on printing and mailing costs, so more of your donation is put to work on overseas projects.

Become a sustaining donor

Monthly giving helps fight global poverty.

  • It's reliable. Monthly giving provides a dependable source of funding that allows CUSO-VSO to effectively plan its work with overseas partners.

  • It's cost effective. Pre-authorized monthly donations reduce CUSO-VSO’s paper and postage costs – allowing us to put more of your donation into fighting global poverty.

  • It’s convenient. Giving monthly allows you to budget your contribution in 12 equal amounts. There’s no need to write a cheque every few months – the work is done for you.

  • It’s environmentally friendly. Because we only contact sustaining donors once or twice a year, you'll receive less mail. That saves trees.

Become a sustaining donor now and begin helping communities help themselves.

Check the monthly or yearly boxes on the CUSO-VSO donor form you receive in the mail, or when making an online donation.
