Why World Vision Economic Empowerment?
Sustainability
VisionFund lent over $837 million in 2017 to more than 1.2 million borrowers in 30 countries, with more than 97% of loans repaid on time and in full. 72% of VisionFund’s borrowers are women. The Women’s Empowerment Fund will help them transform their futures by offering access to the credit, savings, and insurance services that enable them, their farms and businesses, and their children to thrive.
Impact
Supporting Women, strengthens families. Research shows that women can do it: increases in women’s income result in the direct improvements in their children’s lives. Every $1.00 you donate becomes $2.30 in loans to women – and that’s just in the first year. As these loans are repaid, we’ll keep lending to women and expanding the impact of your initial donation to transform lives for years to come.
Commitment
Together we can provide loans for over 140,000 women annually, a big step toward our larger goal of empowering 1.5 million women every year. Give to the Women’s Empowerment Fund today – and be the answer to a mother’s prayer to be able to provide well for her children and family.
Why World Vision Clean Water?
Sustainability
A UNC study in Ghana found that 8 out of 10 World Vision wells continued to function at high levels, even after 20 years. (considerably higher than industry standard)
Impact
In 2010, World Vision and partners reached 200,000 people with clean water. In 2017, together, we reached 3.2 million people.
Commitment
World Vision reaches one new person every 10 seconds and three more schools every day with clean water. And with our partners, we commit to reach everyone, everywhere we work by 2030 – an estimated 50 million people.
