World Vision Bangladesh

World Vision Bangladesh, is a global Christian relief, development, and advocacy organization creating lasting change in the lives of children, their families, and communities living in contexts of poverty and injustice. We are committed to serving and partnering with people in need. Through development, relief, and advocacy, we pursue the fullness of the life of every child by serving the poor and oppressed regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, or gender as a demonstration of God’s unconditional love for all people.

World Vision was first involved with Bangladesh by responding to the cyclone victims of Bhola in 1970 during devastating tidal surges in the coastal areas of the country. Later the organization carried out relief operations in refugee camps in India in 1971. Following Bangladesh's independence in 1972, it started relief and rehabilitation programs as per the invitation of the Bangladesh Government. 

Presently World Vision Bangladesh is serving around 14.4 million children with Health, Nutrition, WASH, Education, Livelihood, Child protection, Sponsorship, and Community Engagement in 28 administrative districts with 56 Area Programs, and 40 private non-sponsorship (PNS), and 36 grant-funded projects. The objective of this organization is ‘To achieve sustainable well-being and build a brighter future for 28.4 million vulnerable children in Bangladesh by tackling causes and addressing effects of poverty, inequalities, and injustices’.
