“We read stories, and poems, play games and draw pictures in the reading camp and I feel happy.” 📚 Anila, age 8, once struggled to read simple words and sentences. But after joining a Reading Camp, Anila has gone from being one of the lowest readers in her class to a fluent, engaged reader. "Now I can read words and sentences by myself." World Vision has established more than 5,000 reading camps across Ethiopia, improving literacy skills and igniting a love for reading for children like Anila. 🧡

Big congrats to Michael Messenger of World Vision Canada for being recognised by the Government of Canada for his dedication to the world's most vulnerable! 🧡 #WeAreWorldVision
All of us at World Vision Canada are so delighted that our President and CEO, Michael Messenger, has been awarded the King Charles III Coronation Medal by the Government of Canada. The medal recognizes outstanding individuals of all ages and from all walks of life across Canada and their “significant contribution to Canada or to a particular province, territory, region or community of Canada, or have made an outstanding achievement abroad that brings credit to Canada.” Michael received his award from MP Pam Damoff at a special ceremony earlier this week. Michael, congratulations on this recognition. We’re so grateful for all you have done to serve the world’s most vulnerable children and for creating awareness about our mission both in your community and across Canada!

"Children's safety should not be compromised even in the times of war." Yesterday, Ukraine was shaken by another devastating attack, this time in the city of Poltava. 47 lives were reportedly lost and hundreds were injured. In recent months, multiple attacks hit hospitals, schools and other critical infrastructures. 💔 We continue to work in Ukraine despite the challenges and security situation, prioritising the safety and well-being of children.
