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.

Water, sanitation and hygiene are some of our most basic needs, and a lack of access to them can be deadly. When you give to Compassion's Water, Sanitation and Hygiene initiatives, you ensure that children around the world have clean water to drink, the ability to practice good hygiene and protection from deadly diseases through things such as washrooms, hand washing stations and hygiene education.

WHAT CAN YOUR COMPASSION DO?
