Approximately 1.2 billion people in the world live in extreme poverty
Poverty creates ill-health because it forces people to live in environments that make them sick, without decent shelter, clean water or adequate sanitation.
Globally more than 173 Million people stood up against poverty in 2009, a Guinness World Record!
Let us break this record in 2010!
Be the voice for the millions of poor people living across India.
It is Time for You to STAND UP AGAINST POVERTY NOW!
