Billions of dollars are spent on aid to Africa, often with negligible or negative results. Aid breeds dependence and corruption.

At Eliminate Poverty NOW we focus on empowerment. We provide people with education, skills and opportunity to make sustainable change through their own initiative and hard work. By focusing on women, we greatly improve their quality of life and the lives of their families and communities.

Our trusted partners in Africa bring a deep understanding of local needs, experience and contacts. They champion project implementation.

We take a business-like approach to get the most from every dollar. We start small, measure results, and only expand projects that create positive, sustainable change.
