Vulnerable children need your support

Help children survive, recover and build a future.

Will you help children in the world's most dangerous places?

Survive, recover & build a future.


Millions of children live amongst conflict, disaster, political unrest & ongoing instability.  In these dangerous places children are extremely vulnerable to violence, poverty, abuse and exploitation.

To ensure these children don't miss out, World Vision designed Childhood Rescue, a specific programme that is adaptable and flexible.

Childhood Rescue can respond to urgent and arising needs with life-saving interventions, crisis recovery programmes and helping to build a future for vulnerable children.
