World Vision helps the world see through eyes of faith
Following Jesus’ mission is our mission
We’re founded on the belief that Jesus came so that all people may have life to the full. That’s why we address both the physical and spiritual roots of poverty, working toward restoration and wholeness on every level.
Mobilizing the global Church with love
World Vision has mobilized the Church in this mission since in 1950. Every year we equip more than 50,000 pastors and church leaders around the globe, together showing Jesus’ love to children and families in their communities.
Celebrating lasting change
We’ve witnessed God’s powerful provision as children and families are equipped with tools and training to create lasting change for generations to come. With a presence in nearly 100 countries, we aim by 2030 to equip 300 million people in poverty with the tools to change their lives.
