"My prayer is that I may have two meals per day and I will be satisfied"

The solution to poverty is more than physical; it’s spiritual too.
1 in 10 suffering
It's not okay that roughly 698 million people are living in extreme poverty.
Partial solutions
It's not okay that most solutions to poverty focus only on the physical, neglecting the spiritual, social, and emotional dimensions of poverty.
Reliance on handouts
It's not okay that so many resources go to providing 'handouts,' which do little more than put a band-aid on a gaping wound.
Our approach is different. Instead of handouts, you’ll be creating sustainable development through the local church. It’s more than empowering people to help them overcome poverty; it’s about loving our neighbours and joining God in his Kingdom-building, life-giving mission.
