Transforming children's lives

 

Together in 2023 alone, we directly reached over 370,000 vulnerable children across 22 countries. In addition to that we reached a further 390,000 women and men.

It’s all thanks to incredible supporters across the country who believe every child deserves a chance.

For every euro spent by World Vision Ireland, 89c went towards our work to care for and protect vulnerable children around the world and 11c was spent on raising another euro.

How can you be sure where your donation goes?

 

When you give to World Vision, you can be assured that your donation will be well spent to have the greatest possible impact on children and communities who need it most. Our programmes are run by our own staff or local, trusted partner organisations. We also support communities to better know and uphold their rights. Additionally, our accounts are independently audited every year and we’re regulated by the Irish Charity Regulators, so you can be sure we spend your donations how we say we will, to reach the most vulnerable children and communities

Boy from Angola smiles as he is held by his mother who is looking at him
When Angola faced its worst drought in 38 years, Beto, age one, became malnourished. Thanks to supporters, he was given the care he needed to fully recover.

We help the most vulnerable children in the world - and you can read all about how we transform lives of children and their families.

For Beto and his Mum, World Vision's actions were life-saving. When Angola faced its worst drought in 38 years, they barely ate and Beto became sick and malnourished.

World Vision provided food and training for the community so they can provide for themselves. Now, Beto smiles.

How can you help?

 

There’s still so much we need to do.

There are millions of children struggling to survive, who risk losing their childhoods, their families, and their hope.

We work with communities to help them bring about change in the longer term, as well as providing emergency relief when disasters strike.

We provide immediate support, and we stay, helping to rebuild lives for children, families and communities.

This simply wouldn’t be possible without thousands of people like you.
