A Global Neighbourhood

Compassion is a global network of more than 40 countries partnering with over 8,500 local churches. Together, we serve over 2.3 million children holistically by removing barriers and providing opportunities for each child to reach their God-given potential.

But there are millions more trapped in poverty—and every child matters.

Our strategic vision is to serve 3.3 million children and their families by 2028 by expanding into communities and regions that are among the poorest, most remote and marginalised.

God is moving through partners just like you to empower the local church to make a long-term impact—one child and one community at a time.

“Having seen the project firsthand, I was blown away by how holistic it is. The project taught mums which foods were important, how to prepare nutritious meals, and even assisted them to gain employment.” —Melanie, Advanced Accredited Practising Dietitian, Victoria
