Poverty is a humanitarian issue impacting millions of people worldwide. According to World Bank, there are 120 million more people who are living in poverty as caused by the pandemic. But even before the pandemic 689 million people lived in extreme poverty surviving on less than $2 a day. We can’t let this issue go on forever.

While there’s no silver bullet to solving a problem immediately, raising awareness on this issue can assist the communities who need the most help. I believe that most people are generally good at heart. If people are aware of challenges like hunger and poverty, they’ll take action.
