As an organization, World Vision helps individuals of all faiths, ethnicities, and genders.

World Vision International (WVI) Nepal has been fighting for the welfare of children since 2001, collaborating with communities and government bodies in some of the most remote locations of different districts of Nepal. World Vision International Nepal (WVIN) has been a child welfare organization that has partnered with locals in 14 districts across Nepal over the years. Achham, Doti, Jumla, and Kathmandu are just some of the 11 districts where WVIN's development initiative is now at work. Udayapur, Sindhuli, Sunsari, Sindhuli, Kailali, Lamjung Morang, and Lamjung Himal are some of the other mountains in the region. WVIN provided emergency help and later led recovery operations in the worst-affected districts of Bhaktapur, Dhading Delha Gorkha, Kathmandu, Lamjung, Lalitpur, Nuwakot, Sindhuli, and Sodhupalchowk after the terrible earthquake devastated Nepal in April and May 2015. WVIN is currently working in Gorkha, Sindhupalchowk, and Nuwakot districts to help families bounce back and strengthen their resilience with interventions in the areas of livelihoods, shelter, and infrastructure, and Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH).
