Imagine the possibility

It is difficult to say what is impossible, for the dream of yesterday 
Is the hope of today and the reality of tomorrow. 

~ Robert H. Goddard

Ending extreme poverty is a cause I am extremely passionate about. This is why I continue to campaign, to educate and to ultimately work towards an end to extreme poverty. 

Why do I care so much? 

I have a strong belief that we are all individuals no matter what race, religion, social status or background you come from. I believe that all people are entitled to the basic human rights of food, education and medicine. I believe that people should be able to do the things they need and want to do without being scared for their lives or stopped because of easily broken barriers. 

We live in a world where we have enough resources to end extreme poverty. No one need go hungry and many diseases are preventable. There is injustice in our world and I want to do something about it.

Throughout my years of campaigning, I have faced many people who say it is impossible to end extreme poverty. But is it really? I don't think so at all. 

In the past twenty years, just my life time, the numbers of people living in extreme poverty has been HALVED. 

So can we end extreme poverty? Yes.

Better still we have the power to end it in our lifetime! 

Imagine if we could end extreme poverty in our lifetime. What an amazing legacy we could leave our children and grandchildren. In years to come, our world could be with out extreme poverty. It might seem impossible but it can be achieved. I have hope and I will not stop until we can say we have ended extreme poverty. 

Just imagine the possibility!
