| Welcome to Alliance of Students Against Poverty! |
|
The Alliance of Students Against Poverty (ASAP) is a campaign to abolish extreme poverty worldwide by the year 2025. As a non-profit organization, it seeks to inspire today's Generation Y to assist in this effort. It calls upon the youth of this world to take the lead in raising awareness of the issue of those living on less than $1 a day and to spread ASAP’s message, which is this:
- Over 1/6 of humanity lives in extreme poverty or on less than $1/day.
- The practical solutions and interventions needed to eradicate extreme poverty by the year 2025 are currently available.
- $1/day donation over the course of one year will start one family on the path out of extreme poverty.
