Much like many of the projects which we talk about on here, the truth is that none of these problems should exist and poverty is right at the top of issues which we have, that we really shouldn’t. Poverty, of all types and severities, comes about because of a number of factors, but at the root of it is usually greed. Sadly those who are most affected by poverty are those who are blameless and that is a fact which just makes the whole issue hurt that little bit more.

Thankfully however there is hope, and we must always remain hopeful that there is a solution to the worlds problems, and poverty is no different. Slowly but surely we can help to eradicate this horrendous plight which impacts so many, and although you may feel somewhat powerless, there is progress being made and you can do your bit to help actively support that. If you want to play a role in helping to tackle poverty then here are some things which you can do, depending on your abilities, your time and your situation.

Charity Support

The easiest way in which you can help to reduce the amount of poverty we have in the world is to support a charity like Oxfam which do great work in helping to eradicate poverty around the world. Supporting a charity is not just about donating money, you can help by donating goods or by donating your time to help out in their stores or in another capacity.

Boots on the Ground

You could support many organizations which are looking to rid the world of poverty and this could be in your own local area or further afield. Indeed many people look to take volunteer vacations which sees them venture into another country and support the efforts there in trying to beat the affliction of poverty. It is important to remember that poverty is not just a foreign issue either, if you have homelessness near you or people who are struggling to get by, then that is also classed as poverty, something which you can certainly help with.

The harder that we are all able to work together to end poverty the better off we will all be. Support charities, support organizations which are looking to eradicate poverty and with our money, our effort and our time, we will see a world which has rid itself of poverty.
