Global Charity

Global Charity is a global movement of millions of people who share the belief that, in a world rich in resources, poverty isn’t inevitable. In just 15 years, extreme poverty has been halved. 15 more years and we can end it for good.

 

Since Global Charity first started in 1955 we have challenged the underlying causes of poverty, while supporting people to cope when disaster strikes. These principles are just as relevant today, but global challenges like the Covid-19 pandemic and the climate emergency need us to keep evolving to reflect the threats and opportunities of today’s world.

Our Strategy

Our new strategy sets out how Global Charity believe we can best make a difference to the biggest challenges the world is facing in our efforts to beat poverty for good:

 

* Focusing on where we can make the most radical difference: tackling extreme vulnerability in the toughest places on earth, and challenging the inequalities that drive poverty.
* Working more in partnership with communities and organisations around the world who are driving change, supporting them with the resources they need.
* Growing a global network that actively shifts spending and decision-making power to the global South.
* Bringing together people and groups who feel part of an international community, to help raise vital funds and to shape how they take action.
