About the catalogue:
The World Vision Gift Catalogue is a popular way for Canadians to give the gift of a direct, tangible impact on the lives of children living in poverty. For the past decade, Canadians have been purchasing items from the World Vision Gift Catalogue, ranging from livestock to medical supplies.
Every gift from the World Vision Gift Catalogue changes the lives of children and their families. World Vision works closely with communities around the world to identify the greatest needs in the areas of health, nutrition, education, child protection and economic development.
The World Vision Gift Catalogue offers 90 meaningful gifts. Last year, more than 82,000 Canadians purchased gifts from the catalogue to help children in 45 countries worldwide.
