Welcome to Stong
Stong Area Development Programme (ADP) began child sponsorship in 2008.
World Vision had already been working with the community for two years the before first children from Stong were sponsored. World Vision staff spent this time visiting the community and gathering information on its needs. Staff measured various aspects of community life, including education levels, infant and maternal mortality rates and food and water availability. This information is used to set goals and measure ADP progress over time.
World Vision expects to work with the Stong community for approximately 15 years, carrying out an integrated development programme. By September 2022 it is expected that the community will be resourced and able to continue managing development initiatives without World Vision’s direct assistance. We will keep you updated on their progress.
