Tackling Poverty
World Vision is tackling the causes of poverty in nearly 100 countries to empower children and families to break free from poverty.

To help secure a better future for the world's poorest children, World Vision focuses on lasting, community-based transformation. Our long-term projects help families gain access to critical necessities like
clean water,
sustainable food sources,
health care,
education and
economic opportunities.
We also address special challenges like the AIDS pandemic and exploitative practices that threaten children and keep communities trapped in poverty.
