In the U.S., we often take the basics for granted—food, water, education, health, child protection. But globally, these are huge challenges. A lack of clean water or economic development can keep communities and entire countries trapped in a cycle of poverty. But your church can make a difference. 

World Vision wants to partner with your congregation to engage these issues with proven strategies. Through our water, sanitation, and hygiene (W.A.S.H.) program, your church can drill a well in a struggling community. Through our food and agriculture work, you can support agricultural training and seed distribution. Or choose to partner with us to fight illiteracy, support microenterprise efforts, protect children from human trafficking, and much more. How is God calling you to respond to “the least of these”?
