How does sponsorship help a family?
Your $40 monthly gift ensures that families are equipped with the resources needed to rise out of poverty and pursue their dreams. Key interventions include:

• Clean Water The health of an entire village depends on access to disease-free water for drinking, cooking, bathing, and watering livestock and fields. From drilling wells to adding filtration systems, when World Vision improves the clean water supply, child mortality rates are cut in half.
• Education World Vision provides the crucial resources for children to attend and remain in school, as well as materials to build and repair those schools. Children finally have the opportunity to pursue their dreams and potential.
• Food and Agriculture Children’s tiny bodies are especially susceptible to malnutrition and hunger. World Vision provides access to the seeds, tools, and innovative techniques to sustainably maximize crops, cultivate land, raise animals, and process food for reliable, nutritious food supplies.
• Health Care World Vision helps keep children and families healthy. We improve the quality and accessibility of health services such as prenatal, birthing, and newborn care, provide access to children’s vaccinations, train health workers and parents to prevent and treat illnesses, and build and stock clinics.
• Economic Development One of every five people lives on less than $1 a day. World Vision mobilizes the vocational training and income generating activities for financial independence and opportunities to increase self-sufficiency. Children gain a more secure home and future.
• Shelter/Housing Many families in sponsorship communities lack adequate shelter. They often live in broken-down structures needing repair. World Vision provides families with the financing and assistance needed to make improvements to their homes.
