- Nearly 3.6 million people have been able to get good quality education.
- Nearly 200,000 people have been able to access better healthcare.
- Over 400,000 people have been able to build livelihoods.
- In total VSO has reached 24.8 million people, including over 20.6 million indirectly and nearly 4.2 million directly, using our current strategy (2022-28).
