Our vision is to see a world in which inherited intergenerational poverty is a thing of the past, where marginalized communities no longer face socio-economic barriers to sustaining a livelihood for themselves and their families. We believe that addressing the root causes of poverty requires working WITH the world’s poor, rather than on their behalf. Through this inclusion, we believe we can bridge the gap between donors, beneficiaries, and diverse communities, to bring about a sustainable end to poverty in the United States and abroad.
