Why World Vision is in Ethiopia
We never give up on people
World Vision child sponsorship looks at all the things that prevent children from surviving and thriving in their community, and then works with that community to bring all the pieces of the puzzle together to build a better life for all children. For sponsors, it’s a personal way to show God’s love to a child in need in a life-changing way.

For effective infrastructure development, like the Great Ethiopian Renaissance Dam project, that will help the country climb out of poverty.
For God’s peace to miraculously prevail in the ongoing Tigray crisis and for vulnerable people to be protected from the violence.
