Act Now

Each year tens of thousands of Canadian youth team up with World Vision to fight poverty and injustice. Join the movement and get involved with one of the campaigns listed below.

Help Wanted Campaign
Boys and girls around the world are being pushed, forced or trafficked into 3D jobs: dirty, dangerous and degrading. We need your help to stop child slavery, exploitation and abuse. Add your name to the cause and take action!

West Africa Food Crisis
The deepening food crisis in West Africa has sparked fears of a major famine. Events in the region might easily mirror the kind of devastation seen recently in the Horn of Africa unless urgent action is taken. Find out how you can help!

30 Hour Famine
The 30 Hour Famine is the world’s biggest youth fundraiser. Go hungry for a day and help save lives around the globe. Sign up today!

Youth Ambassador Program
Travel to Africa as a World Vision Youth Ambassador! See development work in action, work with other passionate youth, and return home equipped to make a difference in the world.
