Shape your students to be global citizens with a Biblical worldview
You know that your students are future leaders and can be a force for positive change. And you’re tasked with helping shape the hearts and minds of students every day. They’re young men and women who hunger for something real—for a way not just to learn, but to experience.
World Vision Ignite is transformative experiential learning, designed to help your students become global leaders with a Biblical worldview. With Ignite, you’ll prepare and equip students to make a difference and impact the world today.
Empower your teachers and IGNITE your students with a holistic program that can bring new passion and unique experiences to your school.

Leverage easy-to-use lessons and bring global poverty to life through curated videos, in-classroom curriculum and virtual reality
Partner your school with a community and build one-to-one connections with sponsored children, with livestream and Vision Trip opportunities
Compete in the Social Innovation Challenge, a competition to solve an actual humanitarian problem; the winning school will have its solution implemented in the field

Ignite makes poverty and injustice personal
Ignite includes in-classroom experiences, multimedia tools and campus-wide events. We pair your school with another community in a developing country. Through one-on-one experiences with sponsored children in another part of the world, your students will see poverty as not simply an issue, but as an injustice impacting their friends.
Your students will also have the opportunity to:
- Learn through experiences, discovering what is needed to find lasting solutions to poverty, including the need for physical, social and spiritual transformation
- Run in the Global 6K for Water – a world-wide race to help see that every child has access to clean, safe drinking water
- Take the Matthew 25 Challenge – a week-long interactive challenge that helps your students engage in God’s love for “the least of these brothers and sisters”
Our prayer is that this program IGNITES the passion to act in the lives of your students.
“…I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” –John 10:10 (NIV)
We’d love to send you a sample of Ignite curriculum
For each lesson, we’ve laid out clear learning objectives and flexible teaching timeframes. To challenge students to think more deeply, we’ve created thought-provoking discussion questions and included corresponding Scripture. Each grade level is supported by a different guiding question, while each lesson has an academic focus and meaningful engagement opportunities.
See just a glimpse of how Ignite can be a valuable tool to challenge your students to live out their faith with boldness at home, and across the globe.
The largest Christian school in Nevada has begun a pilot of this program with World Vision Ignite. Faith Lutheran MS & HS has established itself as a leader in Christian education, with membership in ACSI and CESA. Its academic record is second to none, with 99% of graduating students attending college, and robust programs in STEM, law, broadcasting and business entrepreneurship. But more than that, Faith Lutheran has a conviction that students live out their Christian faith. Part of that is opening their eyes to the reality of the world and to see themselves as part of God’s work among the hurting.
Building a better world for children, in Jesus’ name
World Vision’s nearly 70 year history focuses on the needs of children, with a goal that every child have the chance to experience the fullness of life, regardless of where they were born. With Ignite, your students will develop empathy – and realize that meaningful change takes time and the healing of broken relationships.
World Vision’s proven community development model means that you’ll do much more than feel good, but you’ll be investing in change that lasts – addressing the core problems of poverty. For every one child sponsored, four benefit.
