Impact abroad

A connection a world away

Poverty is not the result of one single cause. Therefore, WE Charity's model is neither a single solution nor a handout. Instead, it incorporates five key pillars of community life: education, access to clean water, healthcare, food security and opportunity. These work in tandem to empower change and to help advance the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

The WE Villages five-pillar development model is an effective, sustainable and cost-effective approach that works to break the cycle of poverty in rural, marginalized communities worldwide. Research has proven that these programs have had a lasting impact.
