World Vision In Haiti

In January of 2010, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake occurred 15 miles west of the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince, devastating the small Caribbean nation. According to the Haitian government, the earthquake left 222,000 people dead and injured more than 300,000. More than one million people were left homeless.

The Ethiopian Famine - What Has Changed?

Last month, Numis Network began sponsoring children in need through World Vision International, a Christian relief and advocacy organization that is dedicated to helping children, families, and communities overcome poverty and injustice. One of the most inspiring things about working with World Vision is the fact that they are positioned to assist families and communities around the globe and that the contributions they receive make a real difference in the lives of the people they help.

Crisis In East Africa

In a recent video message, actor Hugh Jackman and his wife Deborra-Lee Furness, both ambassadors for World Vision Australia, warned that more than 13 million people were at risk due to the extreme drought currently being experienced in the Horn of Africa. Coming just one week after a gathering of the African Union in Ethiopia last month, the warning underscores the extreme conditions being felt on the continent. It is estimated that there are more than 2.3 million acutely malnourished children across the Horn of Africa.

Making A Difference

Recently, Numis Network announced its support of an amazing organization called World Vision. Founded in 1950 by Robert Pierce, the organization began its child sponsorship program in order to help hundreds of thousands of orphans following the Korean War. Since then, World Vision has initiated child sponsorship programs around the globe and assists needy children with food, education, medical care, and job training.
