BEFORE WE BEGIN: Assessment and design

Before 2014

With local leaders, we assess the community's needs and resources and plan projects to provide long-term solutions.

PHASE 1: Building the foundation

2014

During this phase, sponsorship and development opportunities begin.

PHASE 2: Evaluate and grow

2019

During this phase, we monitor the community’s progress and make adjustments to meet their goals. More community members become involved, lead projects and gain ownership of their success.

World Vision’s global COVID-19 response begins

March 2020

In line with public health recommendations outlined by the World Health Organization, certain program activities are temporarily suspended, affecting procedures like sponsor correspondence, visits and gifts. World Vision works with communities worldwide to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and support families through the crisis.

Routine child sponsorship operations resume

October 2022

World Vision programs return to pre-pandemic norms, as COVID-19 work is integrated into our regular activities.

PHASE 3: Enhance sustainability

2024

During this phase, children and families enjoy improved living conditions as they prepare to become independent and continue the work you helped start.

World Vision child sponsorship starts with understanding what is preventing children from surviving and thriving in their community. We then work with the community to bring the pieces of the puzzle together to build a better life for all children.
