ActionAid tackles the effects of poverty. We also change what keeps people poor.

ActionAid improves people’s lives every day. But we know that’s not enough. So we work relentlessly to change whatever is keeping them trapped in poverty. This means we have a better chance of ending poverty for good.

ActionAid is a partnership between people in rich and poor countries dedicated to ending poverty and injustice.

ActionAid works with local people to fight hunger and disease, seek justice and education for women, hold companies and governments accountable and cope with emergencies in over 40 countries. We want a world without poverty, where nobody goes to bed hungry.

ActionAid is beating poverty one step at a time - and there are hundreds of ways that you can help.

Do something you love, make your voice heard, have an adventure, sponsor a child, make politicians listen, sign up, join in, get your business involved – or just give a donation that will change the lives of generations. When it comes to beating poverty and injustice, it is easy to make your mark. Find out here how you can change the world.
