You’ve heard the urgent message: One billion children worldwide are experiencing multi-dimensional poverty. They live without access to education, healthcare, housing, nutrition, sanitation or water. They live without hope for a bright future. But the compassion of people like you can change that.

The needs are great. But our compassion can interrupt poverty with hope.

Raising funds for Compassion Canada’s programs around the world gives us the opportunity to respond. Everything Compassion does is driven by local churches. Together, we are meeting real needs in partnership with local leaders who know and love the kids and families in their communities.

When you give to Compassion's Income Generation initiatives, you provide families living in poverty with resources to earn an income: things like livestock, seeds, skills training and more. This is a gift that keeps on giving, as it helps families overcome the desperation that lack of skills, resources and opportunities creates, and gives them the stability they need to build a future.

WHAT CAN YOUR COMPASSION DO?
