Every day, we are working to transform the lives of people living in extreme poverty

Our vision, our mission and our work are all defined by one goal – ending extreme poverty, whatever it takes. We believe that no-one should have to live in fear that they won't have a home to sleep in or enough food to feed their children.

When an emergency strikes, we are among the first on the ground – mobilising expert teams in just 24 hours. From hurricanes in Haiti to famine in South Sudan, we go to the ends of the earth to reach the most vulnerable.

By donating today, you're helping us make this vision a reality, one step at a time.
