Help equip hardworking families to thrive.

Worldwide, 1 in 11 people survive on less than $2.15 a day. Many of these people have few opportunities to save money, get loans to start or grow a small business, or learn better farming practices.

But when hardworking people are empowered and equipped with tools to change their circumstances, ending extreme poverty is possible.

You’ll help families grow strong and self-sufficient through resources like:

  • Biblical Empowered Worldview training which equips people with a scripture-based view of identity and accountability to change disempowering mindsets and take positive action, resulting in improvements in gender relations, family harmony, and vision for the future
  • Savings groups that enable community members to save money together, expand social networks, and learn financial basics
  • Training on business planning and accessing new markets, which leads to improved income diversification and resilience
  • Small loans offered to mature savings groups that enable them to take even bigger steps toward growing or improving their farms and businesses

Our Commitment

Your gift is a sacred trust. We promise to honor your generosity by using your donation in the most effective way possible. Giving options represent World Vision projects and suggested donation amounts are based on surveys in the countries where we serve. Your donation will be used to provide assistance where it's needed most with the gift category. For example, when you give an animal gift, a portion of the gift may also help provide water sources, farming assistance, hunger relief, and other related essentials.

The multiplying effect from grants and donated goods may change throughout the year on identical or similar offers due to variations in the start and end dates of donor grants and our programs.
