More than 700 million people worldwide are living in extreme poverty — most of them women and children. 

With an income of less than $2.15 per day, they are 
deprived of basic human needs like access to  clean water, nutritious food, healthcare, education, and spiritual nurture.

We believe that, together, we can change this.

We have over 70 years of experience working with communities, donors, partners, and governments to create opportunities for better futures for vulnerable children … even in the toughest places.

Keeping costs down

In 2023, 89% of World Vision’s total operating expenses were used for programs that benefit children, families, and communities in need.

Uprooting poverty

Our integrated approach includes water, healthcare, education, child protection, and income generation, so every child can grow into who God created them to be.

Abiding in Jesus

We serve alongside the poor and oppressed as a demonstration of God’s unconditional love for all people. World Vision serves every child we can, of any faith or none.

    Remembering God’s faithfulness and trusting Him for the future

    ByKristy J. O'Hara-Glaspie

    In this editor’s letter, we pause to remember how far God has brought us. Drawing from 1 Samuel 7, where Samuel sets up a stone of remembrance and calls it Ebenezer, this reflection marks World Vision’s 75th anniversary as a moment to look back with gratitude and forward with faith. The stories in this issue serve as our own “stone of help,” celebrating decades of God’s faithfulness through the stories of lives changed, including our own.
