It is interesting that the credit crunch has for a fleeting moment helped those in many western countries realise the difficulties associated with poverty, although clearly this cannot be compared with the day to day poverty that billions live with everyday. Let’s hope that the crunch makes us more willing to help fight poverty

@Quintin — I think helping other people acquire new skills is the key to breaking the cycle.

@Alexis — Agreed.

@Kouji — I’ve heard about Kiva before, but not the other two. I’ll check them out. And thank you for stopping by.

I agree, it is easy to let poverty in our own and other countries take a backseat to the millions of other things we think about on a daily basis. That is why today is so important. Making even the smallest contribution can help someone in need; donating blankets and warm clothes, volunteering at shelters and kitchens, and if you have the means, providing donations to charitable organizations.

I work for a non profit company that provides computers, resources, training, and help to those in poverty. Our goal is to give them the necessary skills they need to enter the workforce and stop the cycle of poverty. We’re also blogging about poverty today and I believe that raising awareness is the first step to remind people that there is a problem and we all need to do our part to help, no matter how small.

for my part, i turn to sites like freerice (rice donation), kiva (microfinance), and goodsearch (donation per search), as ways to help alleviate poverty online. i also put up their banners on my blog.

Poverty is something we never think about until we see it, like someone eating out of the trash or something of the sort. But we can help by working at homeless shelters or giving a class to help people aquire some of the skills you possess.
