By sponsoring children in Lipiri community, you are making an incredible difference in vulnerable children’s lives.
Your support is helping Lipiri community by improving the physical, emotional, spiritual and social well-being of the most vulnerable children.
Through decades of experience, we have proven that the most effective way to help a child is to strengthen their entire community, caring for every child along the way. In fact, because of these community-focused solutions, for every child you sponsor, 4 more benefit too!
Together, we are tackling the hard problems, such as changing mindsets and behaviours to address the root causes of poverty. We're focusing on building skills, hope and opportunity for the children of Lipiri community.
14,790 children aged 3 to 6 go to preschool, helping to lay the foundation for them to succeed at school.

5,000 educational kits were given to school-age children as part of our COVID-19 response, helping them to keep learning at home.
1,498 child protection groups monitored sponsored children, helping to identify and support girls and boys in need.
"I was so sad I wasn't allowed to attend school without a face mask. World Vision taught mothers at our school how to sew. They made face masks so we could go to back to school." – Emma (10), pictured front right
"My first baby was born very small. I worried because we struggled to feed him. Community health volunteers showed us how to prepare nutritious food for him and he recovered." – Elita, mother pictured right
"Our children were often sick with malaria and we couldn’t work and spent money on health costs. Thanks to spraying for mosquitoes, our children are healthy and malaria-free." – Lustia, mother pictured right
We will continue our partnership with the Lipiri community until 2024. Continuing to build knowledge, skills and resilience through sustainable projects; equipping the community to identify and effectively respond to needs as they arise.

Lake Malawi
Lake Malawi is the second deepest lake in Africa and is globally important for biodiversity conservation because it is home to more species of fish than any other lake on the planet.
There are about 700 different types of cichlids (freshwater fish) in Lake Malawi which is 30% of all known cichlid species in the world!
Lake Malawi is about 580 kilometres long, 75 kilometres wide at its widest point and 706 metres at its deepest point.
Explorer David Livingstone described it as the “Lake of Stars” because thousands of fishing boats light up the surface of the lake with their lanterns at night.
You can help another child break free from poverty, for good. Your sponsorship will help bring essentials like clean water, education and healthcare to a child and their community.
Children in the world’s most dangerous places need you now. Help them survive, recover and build a future. You can provide life-saving food, water and protection to kids whose lives are on the line.
Including a gift in your Will to World Vision is a wonderfully generous way to ensure the values that are important to you live on, as you continue impacting communities around the world.
