World Vision Sponsorship is different
Because of our community-focused solutions, for every child you help, 4 more benefit, too!
Sponsored children get a hand up
Not a handout. Here at World Vision, every 60 seconds a family receives the tools to overcome poverty. Sponsorship empowers children, families, and communities to become self-sufficient.
It’s about the children and where they live
Your child can experience your love and encouragement through letters and photos. Meanwhile, your sponsorship provides resources and improvements that benefit the whole community.
All children can experience Christ’s love
Our faith in Jesus motivates us to serve all children regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, or gender. We go where other organizations can’t. That means you can too.
Your sponsored child deserves the best
That’s why we’ve been refining solutions to poverty and injustice for more than 65 years. Our goal is to work ourselves out of a job, empowering your child and community to thrive!

World Vision child sponsors across the U.S. share their stories of being called by God to be sponsors and the impact of sponsorship on their families.
Leslie Kelly
“I feel very lucky that I was born and grew up in a country like the United States where I didn’t really want for anything. Sponsoring a child made me realize that many places in the world are not that way. I need to be more thankful for the blessings that I have.”
Aleda Stone
“I was unable to have children, so my husband, Tom, and I adopted three children from Korea: Starre, Kascade, and Boone. I had hoped for a family of six, so sponsoring a child through World Vision seemed to fill some of that need.”
Heather Nickell
“We’ve added three children to our World Vision family, each one of them sharing a birthday with one of our own children. First we added Joel from Uganda and Ivan from the Dominican Republic. Most recently, we sponsored Daniela from Romania “
Susan McClung
“I chose to become a World Vision sponsor in 2006 after our fourth child died just a few weeks before she was to be born. God showed me how being part of this child’s life would soothe my hurting heart and bring joy to our family.”
