Progress Report: Fiscal Year 2017 (October 2016 to September 2017)
Currently, World Vision donors in the United States are reaching families in 36 countries across the globe with emergency aid. Among them are hurricane survivors in the U.S. and the Caribbean, families displaced by conflict in Syria and Iraq, and communities coping with extreme drought and hunger across East Africa.
Your support is saving lives, restoring dignity, and renewing hope in many of the world’s hardest places. Thank you.
Progress Report: Fiscal Year 2016 (October 1, 2015 to September 30, 2016)
In 2016, World Vision reached 15.4 million people in disasters and crises with life-saving aid and critical relief. Some of these disasters dominated the news, but most received little attention.
Through the support of grant funds and our private donors, $401 million in humanitarian aid was provided to people across the globe. But these figures do not capture the true impact of your support. Reaching someone in their greatest hour of need provides so much more than food, water, or shelter—it reminds them of our linked humanity. It restores hope and dignity. It is our faith in action.
Thank you for partnering with World Vision in this humbling work.

The Syria conflict has now killed nearly a quarter of a million people and displaced roughly 12 million. On the fifth year anniversary of the conflict, a short new ebook by Rich Stearns, World Vision U.S. president, explores questions of how we, especially the Church, can be more than a band-aid on a gaping wound in the Middle East. He offers an overview of the crisis, first-hand accounts from visits with refugees in the countries surrounding Syria, and reasons we can make a difference for families who are suffering.

When a 9.0-magnitude earthquake struck off the northeast coast of Japan on March 11, 2011, a tsunami some 40 meters (133 feet) high was triggered. More than 15,000 people were killed, 300,000 were evacuated, and 3,100 people are still unaccounted for. A nuclear emergency was triggered in the Fukushima area. World Vision supported earthquake- and tsunami-affected communities with relief items; established community kitchens in evacuation centers; and set up Child-Friendly Spaces. The current recovery and rehabilitation phase of the response also incorporates an expansion of support to children; the recovery of livelihoods in the fishing industry; child-focused disaster preparedness; and support to Fukushima evacuees.
