World Vision Inc.

World Vision Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit organization headquartered in Federal Way, Washington, acts as a prime recipient of federal grants across international humanitarian assistance, development, and labor programs. The organization does not hold federal contracts or contract IDVs; its federal footprint is entirely grant-based, with 94% of recent awards in prime-recipient roles and 6% as a sub-recipient under cooperative agreements and project grants from USAID, the Department of State, and the Department of Labor.

World Vision's capability portfolio centers on emergency humanitarian response, food security, water and sanitation infrastructure (WASH), protection services for vulnerable populations, health and nutrition interventions, livelihoods and economic recovery programming, and labor rights advocacy in global supply chains. Representative prime-recipient work includes a $15 million cooperative agreement from the Department of Labor's Bureau of International Labor Affairs (CFDA 17.401) awarded December 31, 2025, to implement the TRACE project addressing child labor and forced labor in cobalt supply chains across the Democratic Republic of Congo over 54 months through June 2030; a $28.6 million McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition Program cooperative agreement from USDA's Foreign Agricultural Service (CFDA 10.608) awarded September 30, 2024, to deliver school feeding, literacy, and maternal-child nutrition initiatives in Angola; a $14 million Department of Labor cooperative agreement (CFDA 17.401) awarded August 2, 2022, to reduce child and forced labor in chili pepper and tomato sectors in Mexico through February 2027; and an $8.2 million USAID cooperative agreement (CFDA 98.001) awarded July 15, 2024, to strengthen local governance and service delivery across six regions of Senegal through the GOLD+ program running through July 2028. Recent emergency response grants include a $2 million Department of State project grant for Cyclone Ditwah humanitarian assistance in Sri Lanka (CFDA 19.523, awarded December 9, 2025), a $1 million Department of State grant for flooding response in Mozambique (CFDA 19.511, awarded February 10, 2026), and a $250,000 Department of State grant for Tropical Cyclone Maila response in Solomon Islands (CFDA 19.511, awarded April 17, 2026).

Customer concentration is heavily skewed to development and humanitarian agencies. USAID accounts for the dominant share across its multiple bureaus: the primary USAID entity holds 284 awards, the USAID Bureau for Management Office of the Assistant Administrator holds 68 awards, and the USAID Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance holds 32 awards. The Department of State's Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM) follows with 78 awards focused on refugee assistance and humanitarian response in multiple regions. The Department of Labor's Bureau of International Labor Affairs contributes 10 awards centered on supply-chain labor compliance. These five customer entities account for 85% of recent awards, reflecting World Vision's positioning as a core implementing partner for U.S. international humanitarian, development, and labor-rights programming.

Activity has declined year over year across the recent five-year window: 35 awards in 2022, 26 in 2023, 28 in 2024, 14 in 2025, and 4 through mid-2026. Thirteen awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, creating modest recompete exposure. World Vision operates as a sub-recipient under cooperative agreements led by Catholic Relief Services (the lead prime on the Joint Emergency Operation for emergency food distribution in Ethiopia), Mercy Corps (on resilience and food-security programming), the International Rescue Committee (on refugee and child protection objectives in Uganda and elsewhere), and smaller partners including Search For Common Ground on health and protection interventions in the Democratic Republic of Congo and the United Nations World Food Programme on school feeding infrastructure in Angola.

World Vision's federal grant footprint spans 39 distinct customer agencies and geographic performance across sub-Saharan Africa (Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Rwanda, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Angola, Kenya, Mauritania, South Sudan, Mali, CAR, Lesotho, Somalia), Asia and the Pacific (Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Timor-Leste, Papua New Guinea, Vietnam, Mongolia, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands), Latin America (Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Mexico, Chile), and select European locations (Ukraine, Georgia, Abkhazia). The combined obligated value across all 554 awards (prime and sub) reaches $3.44 billion, with nearly all work funded through USAID's Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas (CFDA 98.001), Department of State Overseas Refugee Assistance Programs (CFDA 19.517, 19.518, 19.523, 19.511), Department of Labor International Labor Programs (CFDA 17.401), USDA McGovern-Dole Food for Education (CFDA 10.608), and USAID Ocean Freight Reimbursement (CFDA 98.003) programs.
