[VSO Rwanda @VSO_Rwanda]

For almost three decades, @VSO_Intl has been a driving force in shaping #Rwanda’s volunteerism ecosystem, building strong partnerships, equipping youth, uplifting marginalized communities, and strengthening systems that leave no one behind.

As we close the week of #ivd2025, we celebrate the incredible impact of #volunteers who continue to spark change in schools, health centres, youth spaces, and local government systems.

When #volunteers step forward, communities rise. When communities rise, a nation thrives.
Therefore, #EveryContributionMatters.

My spark for lasting change is to transform and support how people learn, grow, and show up at work. My spark is rooted in elevating people so they can thrive, feel seen, and perform at their best.

What's your spark?

“ @VSO_Intl exists to spark lasting change, until no one stands alone.”

Today, the world celebrates the power of volunteers, the everyday change-makers who prove that #EveryContributionMatters.

For @VSO_Intl, this #InternationalVolunteerDay marks a historic moment: the official launch of our new identity
Volunteers Spark Others

This #IVD2025 is where the spark lights - igniting a global movement of solidarity, action, and service as we journey toward the International Volunteering Year (IVY) 2026.

Across #Rwanda and beyond, @VSO_Intl volunteers continue to spark transformation in education, youth empowerment, health, climate action, and inclusive development. Their commitment reminds us that meaningful change begins with one person, one action, one spark.
