Ways to Help End Poverty

The Problem

700 Million People Live in Extreme Poverty

Global inequality means families can't access what they need to pave a better future for themselves—or for their children.

But this isn't the end of the story. God doesn't abandon his creation. He sets about redeeming and restoring it through Jesus, and he invites us to join him.

What Can I Do?

Together, We Work Towards Ending Poverty for All

  • Give

    Give to the work of our Christian Partners, and you’ll support best practice community development that creates lasting change for everyone.

  • Pray

    We believe in a powerful, compassionate God who hears our prayers. Pray with us for those who are vulnerable, and for God's people to be generous towards those in need.

  • Act

    Join us as we speak up for the rights of those who are marginalised and oppressed, and urge Australian leaders towards justice and mercy.

Our Impact

Stories of Transformation

Thavorn

Cambodia
I have a disability, so I could not move outside the village to earn money and I lived in poverty. Through the program, I’ve learned how to grow vegetables and raise chickens and ducks to sell in the village. I thank God who motivated me to overcome difficulties in my life, and I also thank donors in Australia who supported me—your love helped a lot.

Jagmati

Nepal
During my childhood, I had nothing in mind about my future except being obedient to my parents and supporting their livelihood. I hope to make a change in the lives of women like me who face challenges, and see all women empowered socially and financially, living in an atmosphere of equality, as we do in our family.
