How Community Gifts Work
At World Vision we have our ears to the ground! Our field staff in Africa live and work locally with the communities we support. It is their daily contact and commitment that gives us the content for the Community Gifts Catalogue.
But what does this mean for you? Well, when you decide to purchase from the Community Gifts Catalogue you can be sure that the gift is truly needed and will be treasured by the people who receive it.
All our gifts are bought locally – which is vitally important for three reasons:
- we do not waste money on international transportation costs.
- when we buy locally, we inject money into the local economy.
- all the animals we buy are properly suited to the environment from a climatic and dietary perspective.
