Today, nearly 11 % of the world population or around 800 million people suffer from extreme poverty. That’s the equivalent of the population of Europe, Canada, Australia combined or 2.5 x the population of the US.

Poverty, hunger and poor education are all complimentary. We can hardly eliminate one without alimenting the other. If we are to truly eradicate poverty in any given community we then have to provide access to quality education in this community as well as food security. Poor people are most prune to hunger. Also, hungry people suffer many side effects including but not limited to malnutrition , mental retardation... which eventually limit their ability to study and acquire skills and knowledge in an effective way.
We are on a movement to bringing SDG 1, 2 and 4 to a reality through a holistic approach that tackles poverty, hunger and poor education in all African rural communities in an indistinct manner.
