Empower a girl to dream big

Support her as she changes the world for the better.

Right now, thousands of girls urgently need sponsors to help them build a fearless future.

Millions of women and girls live in fear of violence that wears many faces - just because they are girls. Through Child Sponsorship, you can contribute to a generation of fearless girls.

When you sponsor a girl, you can help set her free of fear. Free to learn, grow and to be the fearless girl she’s born to be.

With Child Sponsorship you can empower a girl to achieve her dreams in one of the world’s hardest places.

Choose a girl child and help her realise her dreams.

How Child Sponsorship works

When you sponsor a child with World Vision, you’ll be doing so much more than just helping them. You'll help transform the lives of their family and wider community.

Your sponsored child

You'll help improve the life of your sponsored child and other vulnerable children in the community through access to nutrition, healthcare, education, clean water and a safe environment. Sponsoring a child helps create the teachers, nurses and community leaders of the future.

The child's family

Your sponsorship will make sure families have the means to provide for their children. We help families gain a stable income so they can afford all of life's essentials, like healthcare, nutrition and education.

The community

Your sponsorship will help the whole community to thrive, not just survive. Depending on the needs of the community, we work with them to plan and implement development projects that are lasting and sustainable. And when a community has everything it needs to continue its own development, we move on.

Because of our community-focused solutions, for every child you help, 4 more children benefit, too.

What child sponsors say

When Shemi had her first son, Adam, it made her want to do something for other children without the same opportunities as him. Her sons watched Rachael grow up letter by letter, rushing to open the envelopes, each time amazed at the transformation.
