Poverty is a big problem. Even in the United States, millions of people who are living in poverty. According to the United Nations, poverty is living on less than two dollars in a day. There are very few things that such an amount of money can accomplish. It is even not enough for the survival of one individual yet some families usually survive on it.

Sometimes, poverty is a mindset thing. Secondly, people need to be financial empowered. There are institutions that are providing micro-finance loans to underprivileged individuals in the third world. With a loan, one can start a thriving business.

Unfortunately, that is not the case. There are people who have to drink dirty water. One can find a Jamaican charity concerned with improving water supply.

Water is a basic human need. Water is life. It is needed by humans and animals. It is impossible to live for more than one week without water. People also need food so that to survive. In some countries, droughts are killing millions of people and children are dying of malnutrition. The major cause of drought is climate change.

Some charities are in the business of eliminating hunger. They deal with distributing food to drought stricken areas. There are many causes of drought. The major cause of drought is deforestation. If people continue cutting trees at the current rate, there will be little or no rain in the future. Some charities empower people about the dangers of destructive habits like deforestation.

The key to unlocking the future is education. The future belongs to those who get an education today. Unfortunately, in Jamaica, many children do not go to school because of lack of school fees. In some places, there are even no schools where people can study. A charity organization can be concerned with building schools and distributing educational materials.

It is good to help people who are in need. In the West, many people have high standards of living. However, that is not the case in other parts of the world. There are many people who are struggling to make a living. Charities have lifted many people from poverty. One can decide to contribute money to a reputable charity organization.
