How Campaign Against Poverty Will Transform Lives

Our vision is a world where abject poverty has been overcome and where every individual has access to the very basic necessities of life, including...

EMPLOYMENT

We will provide upfront investment to allow those without jobs to find work or even to set up their own businesses.

EDUCATION

Education is key for the next generation to break free from poverty. We will assist families so children can stay in school and earn vital qualifications.

CLEAN WATER

We aim to provide greater access to clean, drinkable water through investment in new infrastructure and sanitation facilities.

HEALTHCARE

We will provide financial support to those living below the poverty line in Ghana and West Africa so that they can have access to medical care.
