YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Empowering The Poor, Inc is humbled at the enormous task of empowering the poor to self-reliance and dignity, and recognizes that its mission cannot be achieved alone. We need your help to implement culturally-based Educational, Healthcare and Microfinance programs that will reduce poverty, and generate self reliance and dignity to the poor communities across Sub-Sahara Africa. We need your help because we believe that you respect and value human life. Your gift can make a difference in a child’s life. Your generous action can save the lives of thousand pregnant women, and children, who are dying each and every day from preventable diseases such as Malaria, Diarrhea, Tuberculosis, and many other endemic diseases such as HIV/AIDS.  We need your help because we believe that everybody can make a difference.

“You don’t have to be rich to make a difference in a child’s life. You don’t need a college degree to save lives. This is not about charity after all… It is about giving a chance to a little girl or boy to live and dream, like any other child …It is about restoring human dignity. I believe that everybody can make a difference. You only need a heart full of grace and a soul generated by love.”
