For millions of women and girls, water isn’t just about thirst – it’s about time, opportunity, and dignity. Every day, women and children spend 125 million hours collecting water.
Our trip was both enlightening and a stark reminder that the world was not created equal. We saw first-hand how World Vision’s Area Programme Vision of holistic transformation was put into action. Not only was there a programme to provide access to education to children, there were also separate initiatives on child protection, micro-financing, health and food security, provision of clean water, and environmental protection. The multi-faceted approach clearly lifted the lives of the community, and we were privileged to see it in motion.
World Vision Singapore has launched a public fundraising appeal today, pledging S$150,000 to support the most urgent needs of children and families impacted by the escalating conflict in Lebanon. World Vision has been working in Lebanon for over 45 years and will be adapting and scaling up our emergency response as the situation evolves, targeting areas of greatest need and maintaining a focus on children. We are providing emergency essentials including food, clean water, hygiene kits, baby kits, mattresses, and winter clothes, as well as creating safe spaces to provide psychosocial support to traumatized children.
