Working with one community at a time

Tweet Sometimes you might feel powerless to help people suffering in poverty. The problems seem too big. Our perspective: We can’t change the whole world, but together, we can see One Village Transformed.

World Concern’s campaign matches you with a community for three years. With your support, we will work with the community to accomplish specific goals as they begin to see a better future emerge.

Families in rural Laos, are some of the poorest in the world … living on less than a dollar a day. Food shortages are common, and children suffer from malnourishment. Sicknesses like malaria and diarrhea are rampant and many young children die from treatable diseases because there’s no medical care.

Most children are not in school. Girls, especially, spend their days collecting water and working, instead of being in school. It’s almost impossible to find volunteer teachers willing to work in such an isolated place.

With you, World Concern will walk alongside families in the village of Dak Euy, helping them build their lives and their community from the ground up. Together, we’ll focus on long-term solutions, so the people of Dak Euy can stand on their own.

Our priorities over these next three years will include:

1. Enough food through improved farming and rice banks
2. Better health from clean water, hygiene and medical care
3. Access to education and hope for the future

For $33 a month for three years, you will make a powerful and significant investment in the lives of struggling families.

We cannot do this without you.

Life in Dak Euy, Laos

It can take an entire day by vehicle, struggling through waist-deep mud up a mountainside to reach the remote Laotian village of Dak Euy. Isolation prevents its residents from being able to access food, schools and medical attention. Many villages like this in the Sekong region don’t even have written languages.

Because of their ethnic background and remote location, people in Dak Euy receive little support from the government or outside sources.

You can help us reach children and families in this village. We’ve got a plan and experience bringing long-term change to villages like this that includes food security, education, better health, and a future beyond extreme poverty.

Hope is coming to Dak Euy ...

We invite you to walk alongside the people here, with World Concern, as together, we see One Village Transformed.
