Let’s end child hunger today

World Vision has a long history of taking action that transforms the world. Our focus is on helping the most vulnerable children, in the most difficult places, overcome poverty and experience the fullness of life.

Together, with supporters like you, we’ve helped millions of children and families out of poverty and are often among the first to help when a crisis strikes.

 

We help children

As a Christian charity, we help children – of all faiths and none - in some of the world's most dangerous places. We believe it takes a whole community to create happy and fulfilling childhoods. And we work together with communities so they're empowered to do just that.

Our integrated approach includes water, healthcare, education, child protection, and income generation. With the aim of allowing every child to fulfil their God-given potential.

Across almost 100 countries, our impassioned community of supporters, volunteers and community leaders work together to transform children's lives. Together, we will never give up.

How we're different

Who we are_Community Led

Community-led

We know that communities have the best understanding of their own struggles. And often they also have the best idea of how to achieve their dreams. We simply listen - and give the tools and training for communities to deliver those dreams, transforming the lives of children and their parents. We're most known for Child Sponsorship which funds a lot of our community development work.

Who we are_Child Focused

Child-focused

We know that changing a child's life can transform a family, a community and an entire area. In all we do, we work towards children’s complete wellbeing, helping them to overcome poverty and get the education they often long for. It is these children who go on to become the doctors, teachers and engineers of the future; they who will stop future generations ending up in poverty.

Faith-based
