World Vision Canada’s Resources-in-Kind program is based on the premise that we can accomplish more in partnership than we can as individuals. That’s why we work collaboratively with companies, foundations and even UN agencies to help communities help themselves. Donated resources are distributed by World Vision staff to support children, families and communities. We work closely with the local government and community-based organizations.

Year after year, communities around the world express needs for resources to enhance their current development initiatives and we focus our attention on meeting those needs.

• Communities in Zambia expressed needs for micronutrients to support their mother and child health programs
