Acting Together to Empower Children, their Families and Communities to End Poverty
This year, with the theme; Acting Together to Empower Children, their Families and Communities to End Poverty; Arigatou International, through its End Child Poverty initiative, would like to interact with you and ask you to show us what actions you are taking to help address the forms of poverty in your community that are affecting children in particular.
End Child Poverty is a multi-faith, child-centered, global initiative of Arigatou International that mobilises faith-inspired resources to eradicate poverty affecting children.
We aim to create a world free of child poverty, by addressing both the root causes of poverty in the human heart and the structural causes of poverty.
The Impact of Poverty on Children
An Interfaith Guide to End Child Poverty: Inspire. Act. Change.
Religious communities and organizations have unique resources. These include their spiritual values, social capital, and moral assets. By working together in partnership with like-minded organizations, we believe in mobilizing resources to reduce poverty at grassroots and global level.
