Volunteering is one of the most rewarding ways you can make a real difference to people living in the toughest circumstances. Most people join us because they want to give something back and find they get much more in return.
Welcome to VOVCOD
VOVCOD - The Voluntary Organization for Vulnerable Community Development is a Local Non Governmental Organization based in Trincomalee District. The root of the organization lies in the late 1980’s when a group of youth commenced voluntary service activities for their own vulnerable community in Gandhi Nagar in Trincomalee. However intensification of the conflict and consequent displacement prevented the group from expanding its activities.
With normalcy slowly returning the group restarted activities in May 2002 and VOVCOD was registered
as a local organization in November 2003 under the NGO act by the divisional secretary Town and
Grivets Trincomalee.
