Life-Changing Christmas Gifts

Life-Changing Christmas Gifts

This Christmas, World Vision is encouraging compassionate Kiwis to remember those facing hunger, hardship, and uncertainty by choosing ethical, life-changing gifts that truly matter.

World Vision’s Gift Catalogue offers a range of purposeful gifts that bring hope, joy, and lasting change to children and families living in some of the world’s toughest places.

Each gift funds vital projects in education, health, emergencies, farming, and nutrition. For example, gifting a goat helps provide milk and drive business enterprise, while providing a toilet improves community sanitation and health.

Every gift purchased includes a printed or e-card, allowing New Zealanders to personalise their gifts while sharing the powerful impact they will have.

Not sure what to give? Here are some of the most popular gifts:

  • Plant a prosperous future: Fast-growing seeds, tree seedlings, garden tools, and veggie gardens help families grow food and earn income
  • Give the gift of health: Immunise a child, provide clean water, or supply mosquito nets to protect children from disease
  • Give livestock: A goat provides nutritious milk and income, while a chicken lays eggs and supports family nutrition
  • Help combat hunger: Emergency food saves lives and multiplies impact through World Food Programme partnerships
  • Give the gift of learning: Help a girl stay in school and open doors to a brighter future

For those wanting to make a significant impact, you can gift the top 10 bestsellers for $305, including a goat, chicken, immunisation, veggie garden, emergency food, clean water, seeds, seedlings, mosquito nets, and education support.

Or simply donate $100 to give where it’s needed most. Your gift could help to protect children in emergencies, keep them safe from violence, or prevent child marriage.
