Alexander Hamilton Awards

A Treasury with Global Vision

World Vision International wins the 2017 Bronze Alexander Hamilton Award for Best Practices in Restricted/Emerging Markets.

World Vision International is committed to doing good around the world, and doing it in a big way. The organization, which has annual revenue of nearly US$3 billion, operates in remote and rural areas within about 100 different countries.

“We are a child-focused organization,” explains Ashwin Ramji, the global assistant treasurer for WVI. “We work with communities to identify what work is needed to improve the well-being of vulnerable children in those communities, then we commit to long-term projects that meet those needs. We may go in for 10 to 15 years with projects that focus on education, water and sanitation, irrigation, or housing—whatever the local community needs.” WVI funds these projects through child sponsorship and other donation programs.

In addition, Ramji says, “working with communities and our partners, we are advocates for child well-being outcomes, both at the U.N. and in our work with local governments. For example, we are very active throughout Southeast Asia in advocating against child slavery and sex trafficking.”
