Emergency relief

World Vision is one of the largest worldwide emergency relief organisations. We react quickly during disasters such as the 2010 earthquake in Haiti and offer long-term recovery support to countries like peacebuilding projects in South Sudan.

Right now, World Vision is responsing to the worst drought in 60 years that has hit the Horn of Africa. We are providing food, water and healthcare to those who need it most - especially severely malnourished children. In Somalia famine has been declared in two regions and is likely to spread. The situation calls for immediate, drastic action.

Our specialised emergency response teams can only operate with you help. Please donate to our Horn of Africa Appeal today.

World Vision looks at the globe in seven regions: West Africa, East Africa, Southern Africa, Asia Pacific, Latin America, The Caribbean and Middle East/Eastern Europe. Each of these regions has a relief manager and staff who provide early warning systems, build capacity to deal with possible emergencies and are our knowledgeable, local front-line staff should a large scale disaster occur in the area. They work with international relief standards.
