I met Lisa Whitehouse a year ago and she told me it was her lifetime goal to volunteers overseas.

She worked with the Government of British Columbia that partners with CUSO-VSO to ensure that we deliver the best possible skilled person to our projects. Government employees can apply to serve with us and return to a job with the BC Government. Lisa is the first volunteer to be sent in this partnership. There are however quite a few BC Government employees that have served with us in the past.

Greg Spira was also getting ready to take an assignment in Cameroon and interviewed Lisa.

Lisa is working with Children and disabilities, mostly administrative work.

I cant wait to hear from her!

Thanks Greg for the doing the interview so well.
