World Vision’s child sponsorship programme addresses the root causes of poverty and brings about long-lasting solutions so that children everywhere can have a new chance at life.
Everything we do is focused on improving the well-being of children, especially the most vulnerable. That's why we are uniquely positioned to work in the world's most broken, heartbreaking environments.
For only $45 a month, you join our incredible community of child sponsors who, like you, are dedicated to giving the most vulnerable children a bright future.
Your Sponsorship of a Child Will Change a Life!
Meet Nancy: With the help of child sponsorship, Nancy became one of the first girls in her community to graduate from high school and was inspired to become an emergency aid worker.
Why Does World Vision Child Sponsorship Work?
We have spent decades committed to the idea that stable productive communities raise healthy, happy children. To this end, our work promotes community-focused solutions, close partnerships with community leaders, churches, families and especially the children themselves. Our programme works because we help both the community and key individuals within it. The parents of sponsored children learn useful and important skills and receive income-generating opportunities that help them and their families for the long term, as well as other members of the community through the sharing of knowledge and resources.
Because of our community-focused solutions, for every child you help, 4 more children benefit, too.
Everything we do has just one goal: the well-being of children, especially the most vulnerable--not just for now, but for the long-term. Communities know their members best, which is why the community nominates children who are most at need to participate in the child sponsorship programme. The programmes then match each child with a single donor so no child is lost. Then with your help, we build a better and safer place for them to live in continuously monitor their well-being and progress. Our decades of experience has shaped our belief that your contributions are maximised when we pool resources from the collective support of all the sponsors rather than simply transferring your donation to your sponsored child. We have found that a holistic community-based solutions are far more effective and sustainable.
Over the last five years, 89% of the severely malnourished children we treated made a full recovery.
Poverty is an extremely complex issue with many layers. Without access to clean water or medical facilities, it is difficult to be well enough to attend school or learn new skills; without an education, it is difficult to access opportunities and have financial resources.
Poverty can become a vicious cycle and leave those affected feeling hopeless. Therefore, child sponsorship must not be shortsighted. We take a holistic approach, pooling contributions towards tackling the many insidious reasons that poverty can bounce back.
We maximise your contribution by providing your sponsored child and other vulnerable children access to basic needs in mainly five areas:
Every 60 seconds ... a family gets water ... a hungry child is fed ... a family receives the tools to overcome poverty.
We are committed to the process of transformation: We stay and work closely with each community for a decade or more. There are three phases to our approach, and the ultimate goal is to see communities take charge of their projects and see them through.
Your help makes all the difference: communities blossom and become safer and sustainable! Once that happens, we are ready to begin anew with another afflicted community.
According to Singapore’s charity regulations, the total expenses incurred due to public fundraising appeals in a financial year must not exceed 30% of total donations collected through the public appeals in that year. At World Vision Singapore, the total expenditure was 16.7% of total funds raised in FY18.

在助养人的集体支持下，我们通常在15年跟ADP合作进行社区转型。这计划可以分三个阶段来实现可持续发展的步伐。

受到助养儿童的父母可以获得有用的技能培训和收入机会，为他们长期为家庭提供照顾。知识和资源传授共享别人的时候，社区其他成员的生活也会丰富起来。
最终，社区对自己工作项目有主权并继续发展。这样长期持续工作改变无数生命！
