HOW DONATIONS ARE SPENT

Transforming children's lives

Together, in 2025, World Vision UK supported 1.8 million children in 184 projects across 35 countries.

Altogether our work directly benefited 3.3 million people. Within this, we responded to emergencies across 29 countries, supporting 2.8 million people - including 1.4 million children.

The wider impact of our work reached an estimated 7 million people, including 4 million children,

It’s all thanks to incredible supporters across the UK who believe every child deserves a chance.

For every pound spent by World Vision UK, 82p went towards our work to care for and protect vulnerable children around the world and 18p was spent on raising another pound.
