About

The Vincentian Lay Missionaries (VLM) is a volunteer-sending charity working with the Vincentian Fathers and Daughters of Charity to support marginalised communities across Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya and Tanzania. Rooted in Vincentian values of solidarity, partnership and serving the poor, VLM improves the lives of those left furthest behind. Since 2002, VLM has sent over 500 volunteers and contributed more than €1 million to our partner projects. VLM's primary objective is 'to alleviate poverty in communities in the Global South by promoting educational, health and community projects through the provision of personnel and funding'. Our Mission Statement Is: To form and facilitate our members to immerse themselves in the experience and culture of the Vincentian mission overseas, so that reflecting on the learned experience, they will, on their return, effect change and transformation both locally and globally.
