How can you help?

You don't have to do something as BIG as persuading your national government to take action.

Start small. 

Start by spreading the word! Inform others, family, friends, fellow peers, of what you know on poverty. Letting people know that things like this exist helps gain support to fight it back!

Want to physically contribute, but don't know where to look? 

No problem.

You can help out your local community by visiting your local soup kitchens, shelters, and other food distributing non-profit organizations. Go to their website and contact them; let them know who you are and that you'd like to help out. Set a date and head on out!
Please be advised: If under the age of 18, parent/guardian consent may be required.

Take pride in helping your local community!

Non-profit organizations like TOMS assist countries in need with their footwear donation project. To learn more about their activity, please visit their website.
TOMS is not the only one out there, trying to improve the living standards for all people in the world. 

Jatalo does too with the product donation services with every purchase.

FreeRice is another anti-poverty organization that mainly focuses on hunger issues in the world. With every correct answer you get in the questions, the organization donates 10 grains of rice! Try it out! It can surprisingly get addicting while remaining educational!
