About Us:
CUSO brings Canadians and the world together to address poverty, human rights issues, HIV/AIDS, inequality, cultural loss and environmental degradation. Skilled CUSO volunteers are working to make change happen in 24 countries in Africa, Asia, the Pacific, the Americas and the Caribbean. As one of Canada’s largest and oldest volunteer-sending agencies, we’ve sent more than 11,000 Canadians overseas for development work since 1961. If you’ve ever wanted to test your limits, open your eyes and share your skills, join CUSO.
