For this week's #GivingEveryTuesday, we're focusing on SDG 1: Ending Global Poverty. 

Eradicating poverty is not a task of charity, it's an act of justice and the key to unlocking an enormous human potential. Still, nearly half of the world’s population lives in poverty. Together, we can feed the hungry, wipe out disease and give everyone in the world a chance to prosper and live a productive and rich life. 

Ideas:

🛍️ Purchase products that are fair trade certified. They encourage environmentally friendly production methods and safeguard humane working conditions. Simply look for the fair trade label on products such as food, coffee, chocolate or clothing. 

📣 Lend your voice to the fight against extreme poverty by shariing information about the issue and contacting goverment officials. Press them to ensure fair wages for the people who live and work in your community. 

🍲 Leave a basket of food and gift cards for a family who is struggling financially

💸 Give to organizations working to fight global poverty. Please tag where you give in the comments!

🤝 Create a sharing corner or free food pantry in your neighborhood check out the hashtags #CommunityFridge and #MutualAid for inspiration.

🍛 When you make dinner tonight, challenge yourself to keep it under $1.90 USD per person as a way of identifying with the millions who live below the poverty line.

What are some other ways we can work together to eradicate poverty around the world?
