What World Vision Does:

World Vision partners with children, families, and their communities to reach their full potential by tackling the causes of poverty and injustice.

Like I said above the provide children with an education and the basic necessities they need to be healthy and successful. World Vision provides health education to families to prevent malnutrition and preventable diseases. They also support several pharmaceutical companies to provide much needed medicines. World Vision also provides disaster relief.
