World Vision Canada CEO Michael Messenger

We are very excited to announce that the World Vision Canada President & CEO, Michael Messenger, will be our speaker today.

World Vision Canada is a global relief, development and advocacy organization. Our focus is helping the world’s most vulnerable girls and boys overcome poverty and experience fullness of life.

“World Vision Canada is a 5-star charity with high impact on its international development programs. It is Canada’s largest international food charity helping those at risk of starvation and malnutrition, especially in fragile communities.”

Michael provides leadership to World Vision Canada’s relief, development and advocacy work, supporting the world’s most vulnerable children. His keen interest in the most fragile regions has taken him to countries such as South Sudan, Central African Republic and Afghanistan, where he has met children and families who were living on the margins. Michael first joined World Vision in 1990 and was involved in early advocacy efforts in Canada and Geneva.

Michael has been involved with numerous non-profit and church boards. He and his wife, Yvonne, have two adult children and have been longtime residents of Oakville.
