3. “Strong Women. Strong World” Fund

Donate to Our Projects
You can bring urgent help and lasting hope to women and their families. Give a gift today and you will provide vital support for World Vision’s Strong Women, Strong World initiative. This initiative supports sustainable change in some of the most difficult places in the world to be a girl or a woman. Join us in helping to create brighter and healthier futures for one million women and their families.

Women of Vision/World Vision is pleased to launch Strong Women, Strong World – a response to the needs of women and girls living in poverty in developing nations. Over the next five years, this initiative aims to raise $15 million, some of which will go toward water, sanitation and hygiene programs.
By providing access to clean water, improved sanitation, and hygiene training, we will work to reduce the distances traveled by women and girls collecting water and decrease the susceptibility of pregnant women and young girls to waterborne diseases.

Through Strong Women, Strong World, World Vision will focus on improving the health and well-being of women and girls, as well as providing increased opportunities for them, in 12 countries where women and girls suffer greatly. Half of these countries have been identified as being among the most difficult countries in the world to be a woman.

• Afghanistan
• Bangladesh
• Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC)
• Mali
• Niger
• Sierra Leone 

Help us reach our goal of raising $20,000 for the "Strong Women. Strong World" fund to help some of the most vulnerable women around the world.
