Together we can address the challenges that Tobacco Disease, HIV/AIDS, and other public health issues pose for poor communities in China.

| Our work with orphans and special needs children includes running our own facility in Tianjin as well as bringing international quality training and support to other foster homes and care providers. We also give life-changing surgeries to hundreds of orphans. Partner with us to give these children a new start! World Vision China was selected by the Ministry of Civil Affairs to be the only NGO to fund and manage part of the nation wide – "Tomorrow Plan". World Vision is investing $500,000 USD to manage and conduct all the 'Tomorrow Plan' Orphans surgeries in Yunnan province.

World Vision China is implementing 30 project sites in 11 provinces. Over 50,000 children are participating in our programs in these locations, and their communities are being transformed. Choose a community near one of our 30 project sites to make a holistic difference in the lives of the children and families of that town. Start a special relationship with a community and see the difference that a partnership can make.
