Why does World Neighbors address international poverty?
World Neighbors believes that we cannot afford to ignore the fight against global poverty. Every day in Asia, Africa and Latin America, tens of thousands of people perish because of extreme poverty. They are dying from diseases and extreme hunger caused by a lack of food, safe drinking water, access to education and basic medication. As global neighbors, it is our responsibility to help those who are suffering, both in the United States and internationally, to rise above the causes of poverty on their own.
