Why World Vision
Our focus is on helping the world's most vulnerable children to overcome poverty and experience fullness of life. As a Christian charity, we work in the most dangerous places to help children of all backgrounds, regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, or gender.
We have over 75 years of experience working with communities, donors, partners, and governments leading to better futures for over 200 million vulnerable children. Together, we tackle poverty at its roots and work with communities to ensure long term change, so progress continues long after we’ve left.
Over the past year, we continued to deepen our commitment to the most vulnerable children around the world. We reached 1.7 million children in 181 projects across 37 countries, supporting more than 3 million people. This included humanitarian emergencies in 28 countries reaching over 1.8 million people, more than half of them children.
