Australian singer, TV host, and former Miss World Australia, Erin Holland, takes on a new life-changing role as our newest Goodwill Ambassador. Erin, who has been a child sponsor with World Vision since 2019, recently returned from Sri Lanka, where she officially began her ambassadorial duties and met her sponsored child, 11-year-old Nadu, for the first time. Reflecting on the meeting, Erin described it as "transformative" and "life-changing," adding that "it was incredible to put a real face to the beautiful little girl she had been writing to for years." As a World Vision Goodwill Ambassador, Erin will play a vital role in advocating for children's rights and supporting humanitarian efforts. Commenting on her appointment, World Vision Australia CEO Daniel Wordsworth said, “Ambassadors are key to connecting generous Australians to the work we do at World Vision." "Erin’s commitment since 2019 has already made a significant impact. As an ambassador, she’s set to transform even more lives. For that, we are so grateful,” he added. Welcome, Erin! #erinholland #goodwillambassador #worldvision #worldvisionaustralia

Today, I am a World Vision Ambassador. But two generations ago, my grandma - Big Mama - was an orphaned teen in post-colonial India with no money and 5 siblings in her care. She is the kind of girl who would’ve needed World Vision’s aid. Because Big Mama escaped cycles of poverty and violence - I am here today. She is proof that when you empower one girl, you don’t just empower her, you change communities and generations. This is what we are setting out to do with the 1000 Voices for 1000 Girls Campaign. They’re reached through education, water, sanitation and child protection programs. If it is within your means, I implore you to consider child sponsorship. Our aim is 1000 girls by Oct 11. We can change communities and generations. Like my Big Mama. Thank you Nine for sharing our campaign. Louise Cummins ICON Management #1000Girls #WorldVision

The impact on the children of Ukraine is increasing as the conflict drags on. Housing for those fleeing the fighting and support for kids to continue their schooling are two critical needs. This week Senator Simon Birmingham toured one of our partner projects with Save Ukraine. This project provides shelter for internally displaced Ukrainians fleeing the fighting and education support for children with a disability. This was made possible by the support of generous everyday Australians and the Australian Government. Find out how to support our work in Ukraine by clicking here https://lnkd.in/gezhrtPA.
