World Vision, answer to Poverty?

World Vision is an international organization that focuses on the children of the world. World Vision focuses on the children's potential and to tackle the causes of poverty and injustice. World Vision now helps about a hundred countries around the world regardless of race, religion and gender. Motivated by the faith in Jesus Christ, World Vision serves alongside the poor and the oppressed.

Anybody can be a donor and send a child to school. Last year I've encountered World Vision in school. A classmate of mine got World Vision to speak in our class. Setting aside P20 every day, will send a child to school. So I paid a certain amount that was good for a year. Having done this, Althea, the child that I sponsored, now has access to water, food, shelter, education and many more. Sponsoring a child makes my heart feel great in a way that I already know that I have helped someone in the world. Child sponsorship can be continued until college. After applying as a donor in World Vision, they give you updates on how the child you sponsored is doing. World Vision also sends updates thru e-mail and snail mail. We're not only helping a child but also their family and community. What are you waiting for? Together, let us stop Poverty!
