About:

World Vision is dedicated to working with children, families, and their communities to reach their full potential by tackling the causes of poverty and injustice.
Our Partnership
Mobilizing Volunteers
Our volunteers work in the World Vision storehouse sorting and packaging compassionate care products for community partners.
Creativity From Our Volunteers
After Superstorm Sandy, World Vision took a mobile Teacher Resource Center to schools heavily damaged by the storm. In a refurbished school bus, they provided free, new replacement school supplies to over 2,500 students and 150 teachers!
Making Grants To Fund Programs
Our grant funds support the Teacher Resource Center, where teachers at Title IX schools can shop for supplies for their classrooms free of cost. These supplies have been tracked to better school attendance and participation for students.
Volunteer Opportunities
We’re here to multiply what we’ve been given so as many schools and nonprofits as possible are able to serve their people better and more, so that the whole greater New York area may be blessed.
