WHERE WE WORK

 

At World Vision, we serve all people regardless of religion, race, ethnicity or gender. In Malaysia, World Vision strives to raise funds and heighten awareness of needs faced by children and communities in the country and worldwide.

In summary, our efforts in 2016 were blessed with the following:

  • 57,074 children from 32 Area Development Programmes in 15 countries are being sponsored by kind-hearted Malaysians; and 
  • 545 Malaysian children and their families in our Tulid Community Development Programme, Sabah are enjoying improved quality of life through our work in education, child protection, economic development and water, sanitation and hygiene projects.

As we celebrate our 20th Anniversary this year, we are also looking at the urgent task of giving hope to more children in need. We are kicking off our celebrations with a Changing 6,000 Lives in 200 days campaign, which aims to find sponsors for 6,000 children.

We raise funds for children and communities in four non-Asian countries including South Africa.
World Vision Malaysia strives to help in community transformation in twelve Asian countries including India.
