Contributions from child sponsors are pooled together to be invested in long-term development programmes that will give your sponsored child, his/her family and community a brighter future.

Clean water
Clean water and sanitation can cut child death rates by half. World Vision drills wells, protects water sources and installs piping systems.

Health care
World Vision provides prenatal and natal care, children’s vaccination and treatment, HIV/AIDS awareness and counseling sessions, and training for health workers/parents to recognise and treat illnesses.

Food & Agriculture
World Vision provides seeds, tools and training so that the community can secure its own food supply, cutting death rates by another half.

Education
Education is critical to your sponsored child’s future. World Vision helps the community to build schools and train teachers.

Economic Development
In poor communities, children are often pulled out of schools to help support the family. By teaching parents how to earn a stable income, children get to stay in school. World Vision does this by providing micro loans, and income generating skills training.

RELATED QUESTION:

Am I the only sponsor to my sponsored child?
Yes, you are. You may want to share your sponsorship with a friend or a group of friends. In which case, you would sign up as “May Ling and friends” or “Mr & Mrs Selva”.

Can I sponsor more than one child?  
Yes you can! There is no limit to how many lives you would like to touch and transform.
