MillionsOfMouths.com - Website about Global Poverty and Hunger
Instead of just throwing money at the problem, we need to eliminate the fundamental causes of poverty. We need to adjust society so that every person has the ability to obtain quality education and sufficient employment that pays enough to cover the costs of food, clothes, shelter, healthcare, student loans, retirement, and all other needs.
We base our philosophy on the belief that every sane person would rather get quality education and sufficient employment than suffer from poverty, hunger, or homelessness. We also base it on the belief that almost every sane person would rather live in a world without poverty than leave the world in its current condition.
