End Global Poverty


Mission:
To support organizations and leaders working to end global poverty 
Founder:
James A. James A. , Helena, MT
Description:
The statistics about the disparity of wealth in this world and the severity of poverty are staggering. It is unconscionable that so many have so little while we enjoy excess and abundance. But it is possible to end global poverty.

Effectively tackling global poverty demands a multi-pronged approach and there is no single cure-all. Issues of poverty are many and complex: Initiatives must address interwoven but distinct issues such as children's rights, women's rights, epidemics such as HIV/AIDS, access to clean water and sanitation, and preservation of the world's natural resources—just to name a few.

Poverty is a gross violation of Human Rights

from Gladson D.  Vline2  May 02

Poverty is a serious violation of human rights, which is growing faster than the growth of the share Market. The marginal farmers were depend on small patches of land for their food security but due to promotion of the corporate development model and use of genetic modefied seeds have created suicidal situation for small and marginal farmers. Now corporate houses are busy in accquiring land which will create the worse situation of food crisis and poverty in the world.

poverty

from paromita d.  Vline2  Apr 22

poverty is the is the single largest weapon of mass destruction on this planet. Nothing kills more than malnutrition, lack of access to medical help, lack of access to education and above all it deters the spread of democracy and free thinking.

Why is taking action so necessary?

from Nicole S.  Vline2  Apr 20

Poverty, hunger, voilence, diseases, no education, pain, dead, war, aids, racism, terror...

Do the people really think that these things go away, while they close their eyes?!

Don't be so stupid!! Take action.

We need to end the global poverty.
We need to end the world hunger.
We need to end the voilence against human people.
We need to end a health system, which makes difference between rich and poor people.
We need to end the time, where kids are not able to learn how to read and write and to calculate. Education saves children and gives them a (better) future.
We need to stop crime, slavery, child labor, abuse - we need to stop hurting & killing people!
We need to find a cure for AIDS, cancer, SMA.
We need to stop war!!
We need to stop to judge people by their religion, their roots and ethnicity.
We need to fight terror in a better way, not leaded by higher interests like oil...

We need to take action, we need to change it now!!!
