Children with disabilities face barriers that often hinder them from receiving proper nutrition, humanitarian aid, or other basic services. We believe every child deserves the chance to reach their God-given potential. Join us in prayer for children with disabilities.
Why World Vision is in Zambia
Zambia is trying to gain momentum on the path of economic recovery, still feeling the continued impact of a suffering economy through a slow rise in the cost of living. And heavy rainfall in the 2022/23 rainy season, accompanied by strong winds, has left thousands of households homeless.
A rise in the exchange rate has led to a high cost of living, making it difficult for the majority of Zambians to afford adequate food. Additionally, farmers don’t have the access they need from the government to sustain an income that provides for their families. World Vision is using the farmer-managed natural regeneration (FMNR) approach to restore and improve ecosystems, which has created improved sources of income for 25,000 farmers. We also drilled or rehabilitated hundreds of 408 boreholes and constructed 40 mechanized water systems — reaching well over 205,000 people, including over 50,000 children, with access to clean water. Expectant mothers are being equipped with training and best practices to care for the nutrition and health of their children, and a campaign is empowering girls to avoid child marriage.We never give up on people
World Vision child sponsorship looks at all the things that prevent children from surviving and thriving in their community, and then works with that community to bring all the pieces of the puzzle together to build a better life for all children. For sponsors, it’s a personal way to show God’s love to a child in need in a life-changing way.
