Millions of people across Asia are affected by flooding. World Vision is helping children and their famillies in Cambodia, Thailand, Laos and the Philippines.

World Vision Australia does not have individual appeals for these floods but our Emergency Preparedness Fund ensures we are ready to respond, and allows us to contribute financially when disaster strikes. With the number of emergencies growing, we expect these crucial funds will continue to be stretched. Supporting it means a lot to those affected by conflict or natural disaster - not only does this work reduce suffering, it helps save lives!
