About Vincentian Lay Missionaries (VLM)
VLM is a not-for-profit volunteer sending organisation established in 2006. Our volunteers work in Tanzania, Ethiopia, Ghana, and Kenya in partnership with the Vincentian Fathers and Daughters of Charity. All of our partner projects are embedded in their communities and strive to serve people living in extreme poverty. Volunteers work in education, health care and sustainable livelihoods projects. They share their skills and experience, lend support and spend time with individuals experiencing poverty in some of the most challenging environments in the world. Our motto is “do one thing, do something”. VLM also fundraises for these projects, providing funding at a grassroots level that goes to exactly where it is needed by the community. Funding has been secured for schools, disability centres, youth projects, street childrens projects, kindergartens, and health facilities. We can assure donors that their money goes to where it will make a real difference and makes an impact.
