Our vision statement
Our vision for every child,
Life in all its fullness

Our prayer for every heart,
The will to make it so.

Our motivation
World Vision is committed to the poor because we are Christian. We work with people of all cultures, faiths and genders to achieve transformation.

We enact this through:

• Relief and development - implementing best practice programs overseas and in Australia to save lives and build sustainable communities.
• Policy change - advocating to change government and institutional policies in Australia and internationally to benefit people in need.
• Synergy and effectiveness - striving to be a collaborative, efficient and effective organisation that we are proud of and others speak highly of.
• Engaging Australia - continuing to educate Australians about the causes of poverty and encouraging involvement in alleviating poverty and its causes.
• Christian engagement - increasing our stakeholders’ understanding of the Christian message of personal growth, social justice and the development of our spiritual lives in relevant ways.
