World Vision is an international Christian humanitarian organisation dedicated to working with children and families to overcome extreme poverty and injustice. We work to promote human transformation, seek justice for the oppressed and demonstrate the love of God for all people. World Vision serves all people regardless of religion, race, ethnicity or gender.
World Vision has impacted the lives of over 200 million vulnerable children by tackling the root causes of poverty through its various development, humanitarian and emergency relief programmes. With 34,300 staff members working in nearly 100 countries, it is one of the largest relief organisations in the world.
World Vision Malaysia (WVM) was set up in 1997 as a Support Office within the partnership of World Vision International, with the primary focus of growing the Child Sponsorship Programme amongst Malaysians and its neighbours. Over the years, WVM has expanded to cover community transformational development programmes, specific advocacy initiatives and emergency responses.
As a Support Office, the main role of WVM is fundraising. Through a variety of awareness and fundraising campaigns and partnerships with individuals and corporations, WVM reaches out to the poor, working with them to build a sustainable future through work in water, sanitation & hygiene, health & nutrition, education, livelihood and child protection.
Today, WVM supports community development and humanitarian programmes in 13 countries. We also have local community development programmes in Mukim Tulid and Mukim Tatalaan, Sabah which seeks to bring the local communities out of poverty and into self-sustainability.
