Sometimes issues like poverty can seem too big and overwhelming, maybe even impossible to fix. But as John F. Kennedy said, “Our problems are man-made; therefore they may be solved by man.” There are real solutions and tactics to combating poverty, and we believe YOU are an integral part of this movement.
There is a vicious cycle of poverty that has inflicted our country for decades. Over 800 million Indians are living in extremely dire situations. Women are disproportionately affected by this crisis, caused by lack of access to education, health care, and employment opportunities.
Even the smallest things like having a conversation about poverty with friends or family to larger actions like hosting a fundraising event can be impactful.
As an iCARE Volunteer, you Learn, Inform, Organise, and Empower.
In order to become a true advocate against poverty, you must first know the facts. Join the online community and access useful information about poverty in India, CARE’s interventions and lots more. You can also browse through photos and videos from the field and read blogs by fellow volunteers.
Once you have knowledge, you can begin to spread the word and involve others in this critical cause. Send out iCARE mailers and invite friends and families to join the movement. Participate in online discussions to interact and network with iCARE volunteers from across India.
Create and manage your very own iCARE Community group and host events in your school, college, or community. Inspire others by sharing ideas, plans, and uploading pictures of your iCARE event on the online volunteer platform. Attend events hosted by other iCARE communities too!
Register to take up fundraising activities that can help millions of women and girls across India to live, learn, earn and lead.
