Resolve to Fight Poverty
Together, we can do what it takes to live in a world without poverty.

We can live in a world where everyone has a roof over their head, enough food to eat and access to clean drinking water. Unfortunately, despite some advances we’re far from this vision.  Students get this and are taking action.  We’re volunteering, raising funds and getting involved in our communities. Now it’s time to take our action to the next level.

To do that, we’re launching the Resolve to Fight Poverty, a national movement of students doing what it takes to eliminate poverty.  Working from coast to coast, students will be raising funds and necessities to address people’s immediate needs to raising awareness and support for long term solutions on the local, national and international level.  

Students and organizations that are joining the Resolve to Fight Poverty will be taking all sorts of action—holding awareness and education events, holding fundraisers, volunteering with shelters and advocating for new and expanded anti-poverty programs.  While we’ll be working at all different levels—from neighborhood issues to global crises, we’ll be united together is a shared commitment to doing what we can to fight poverty.  

The National Student Campaign Against Hunger and Homelessness will help by connecting student leaders to national efforts and resources, by keeping everyone up to date on the issues and by making sure national leaders—from members of Congress to the media to foundations—know about the work students are doing across the country.

Join Resolve to Fight Poverty today.
