Poverty Stops Here: The mission of Poverty Stops Here is to combat extreme poverty in our world. We do this by partnering with villages to understand their greatest needs and working with them to create and implement sustainable projects that will ultimately make them economically self sufficient.

Because of the vast disparity that exists in our world in terms of financial resource allocation, we are lending a hand to some of the poorest villages in order to help people in forgotten parts of our world start living better lives.

Poverty Stops Here learns about the lives, struggles, cultures, and systems in place in the different villages we partner with. Armed with this knowledge, we provide financial and technical assistance to the village to implement projects that will not only make life better for the people of the village, but also be sustained by the village.

 

 

10-10-50.org: The purpose of 10-10-50 is to spark and stimulate power building activity by a large segment of the African (Black) Community in America and beyond. 

10: Each person of African descent who would consider himselfor herself seriously concerned about the plight of African (Black) people must commit a minimum of ten (10) hours each month to a community based organization or institution concerned with the uplift and improvement of our people. This means dedicating yourself to the excellent performance of your chosen organization or institution and helping to make your chosen organization or institution the very best that it can be. – We must build strong organizations and institutions --- none of us are justified sitting on the sideline complaining about what others are not doing. 

10: Commit a minimum of $10 every month to help fund your chosen organization or institution. Make a conscious effort to choose an organization or institution that needs your help. 

50: Transfer or redirect, at a minimum, an additional $50 from your monthly budget to support African (Black) owned and operated businesses. $50 a month should not be the total you spend, but use your creativity to find ways to spend an additional $50 each month. – Make it known to these businesses that you support 10-10-50. Demand that they give good service and that they reinvest in our community.

10-10-50.org is sponsored and hosted by the African Community Centers for Unity and Self-Determination, Inc. (ACCUSD). ACCUSD is a non-profit and tax-exempt corporation with the single aim of helping to develop and maintain "Functional Unity" among African (Black) people in America and throughout the world.
