Working in communities with the most need, we build healthy environments and help empower children to create lasting change that continues for generations. Our programs focus on health, education, empowerment and employment to provide children a path out of poverty and a chance to envision a future they never thought possible. Our research shows that focusing on these four interconnected areas enables children to make an impact on a global level and break the cycle of poverty for themselves and their families. </p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Why healthy behaviors?</h3>
<p>Children living in poverty often have greater health problems and are more likely to suffer from preventable diseases because of a lack of proper treatment. Health issues are often the main factor plunging families further into poverty. Poor health keeps children from school for weeks or even years at a time, leaving them falling behind without the support or resources to catch up. Our programs teach healthy behaviors, including good hygiene and proper nutrition, and provide access to health care and dental clinics at our life-changing community centers.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Why education?</h3>
<p>Living in poverty, many children fall behind and don’t have the resources or support to catch up. Without proper education, children and youth are more likely to turn to drugs or gangs, or become pregnant at a young age. Education is essential to giving children a chance to break the cycle of poverty for good. Our tutoring programs help fill the gaps for children who have fallen behind and are at risk for dropping out. We also provide uniforms, scholarships and computer classes to help children reach graduation day and create lasting change in their lives.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Why empowerment?</h3>
<p>Can you imagine growing up and never seeing someone graduate from high school or find a life outside the poverty of your community? For children in our programs, creating change begins by helping them envision a future they never thought possible. It’s why we focus on empowerment, to help children and youth gain the hope and confidence they need to end poverty for good. Our programs foster social responsibility through leadership, life skills and employment-training workshops, so children are empowered to make an impact in their communities.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Why employment?</h3>
<p>Many children and youth in our communities can’t envision a life free from poverty because they’ve never seen an example of success or been given the tools to find employment. How can you apply for a job if you can’t complete a résumé? How do you secure stable employment if you don’t know where to look for work? Providing youth in our communities the confidence and job skills they need to contribute to their local economy is crucial to helping them end generational poverty. Our programs help youth gain marketable skills through continuing education courses, vocational classes, employment prep courses and more to put them on track to a better future. </p>
