Taking Action

Use these group action ideas to make a difference for children this year. We suggest three ways to do this:

  • awareness
  • fundraising
  • advocacy

Below are a few ideas that we’ve seen work. Adapt these to your school or come up with your own. Whatever you do, be sure to tell us about it! Fire us an email at connect@worldvision.ca or post your actions on the CONNECT Facebook Page.    

Awareness Event Ideas
A great awareness event can establish your group and your message, and get new people involved.

Fundraising Ideas
Fundraising is a concrete action to support work in the field—work that requires our financial support. 

Advocacy Ideas
Encourage leaders to change the systems and structures that keep children poor and unhealthy.
