Mission

To replace the status quo approach to poverty in the U.S. with substantive actions that people of any age can take in their communities

Poverty is our most enduring crisis. It results in people living in constant scarcity and danger, never getting to see what might be possible in their lives. Ending poverty, conversely, will result in millions of our neighbors having a chance to realize their potential and bring their talents and insights to our world.

For too long we have relied too much on government programs to do the work that is best spread among all of us. It’s time for each of us to do what we can do in our communities to ensure that obstacles are removed and opportunities are created.

Mark and Jimmie discuss entrepreneurship, generational wealth and mentorship. Learn from Jimmie on the National Plan to End Poverty website.

The lived experience of those who have risen out of poverty guides our work.

Mark talks with Leo Delgado about best practices in serving those in poverty. Learn from Leo on the National Plan to End Poverty website.
