What is Poverty? | Exploring Extreme Poverty with Compassion

What is poverty? Poverty is more than simply not having money. Poverty is a battle that has mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual challenges.

Understanding this gets you at the core of Compassion's holistic child development program. It’s not just about sending a child to school, it’s about teaching them to identify their goals, equipping them with how to achieve those goals, and encouraging them that they have what it takes to see those goals come true.

Help Compassion International reduce the number of children living in extreme poverty.
