Wishing the @bclions a great season opener today! I was excited to have @rizzy_renzel at our HQ to kick off our partnership to support #RawHope. For every touchdown he scores, $200 will help the most vulnerable boys and girls living in tough places. Go #BCLions! @worldvisioncan

Fantastic to meet with @WFPChief Cindy McCain just now in Rome. @WorldVision's long-standing partnership with @WFP is crucial, as we serve ever more children facing #hunger. We'll continue working together to support & empower the most vulnerable.

#Earthquakes 🇹🇷🇸🇾 | We are glad to announce that donations to the @humcoalition and our members will be matched by @CanadaDev 🇨🇦 up to $10 million for emergency assistance to survivors of the earthquakes in #Türkiye and #Syria.
“The amount of money & effort it will take to rebuild the damage could take a generation. This is a humanitarian emergency that is catastrophic in historic terms, and requires an aid response that is historic in its generosity.” bit.ly/3K2p6fc
@worldvisioncan
The photos and videos of the destruction and devastation caused by the earthquake in Syria and Türkiye are truly heartbreaking.
Many are still under the rubble fighting for their lives.
@worldvisioncan @worldvision are on the ground.

Condolences to Syria’s families & children affected by this morning’s earthquake. Apart from the devastating loss of life, many are now homeless in winter's cold & struggling to survive. @worldvisioncan @worldvision is responding.

27 years ago, my dad died of AIDS. #WorldAIDSDay is personal to me. HIV and AIDS still affect millions, in ways that are inequitable, affecting marginalized communities everywhere. My sister @MelanieJMBrooks wrote this compelling essay that I commend: psychologytoday.com/us/blog/…
Demand that the government of Canada keep the promise to invest at least 10% of bilateral aid to global education in the 2023 budget by signing this petition so that every child has the opportunity to attend school, learn and decide their own future. nwmd.io/s/twitter/ZxQ4BjHEHQ…

#Didyouknow sponsored children and their families do not receive direct cash benefits? Instead, donations support community-based solutions and development partnerships that benefit sponsored children and their whole community. That’s a good thing! wvc.ca/bhujkf

#FlashbackFriday to #SVRIForum2022, the largest gathering of advocates working to end sexual violence against women and children.
@WorldVision staff presented on how we're working with women and girls in vulnerable communities to prevent sexual gender-based violence. @TheSVRI
