World Vision Zimbabwe

World Vision began operating in Zimbabwe in 1973, mainly providing assistance to children’s homes and offering relief to Zimbabweans in camps and institutions.

World Vision is:

• Providing emergency food aid to the most vulnerable and working with farming families to increase longer- term food production, involving training in new methods of farming and distribution of drought resistant seed varieties.
• Assisting 75,000 children as part of the sponsorship programme.
• Promoting HIV and AIDS awareness, as well as life-skills for young people, using drama, music, sports and debate competitions in schools.
• Supporting Community Care Coalitions, created to provide organized support to families affected by HIV and AIDS; and working with churches to empower pastors and congregations in the response to HIV and AIDS.
