Around the world, families like Florence’s are escaping poverty at unprecedented rates. More than a billion people have been lifted out of poverty over the last three decades. Yet, millions more still face the uncertainty of tomorrow, struggling to survive off too little income and too little food, waiting for their opportunity to gain a foothold out of extreme poverty.
For Florence, all she needed was an opportunity to grow her small farm – an opportunity that someone like you made possible. Florence received her first loan, opened her first savings account, and saw her first good harvest. She’s used her income to buy a metal roof for her home and send her grandchildren to school.
Today, you can create an opportunity for a rural family like Florence’s to grow their farm and build a sustainable livelihood. Every family reached brings us closer to the global mission of eradicating extreme poverty, the first of the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals, and in building a brighter, more equitable future for the next generation.
In 2019, you will be a part of three important priorities:
Your support helps unlock more capital and more resources to reach some of the world’s most marginalized families—families who have been waiting generations for their opportunity to build a better future. Thank you!
