Moved by the story of Muhammad Yunus and how he started the Grameen Micro-Finance System, we began stop poverty by helping the less fortunate on Staten Island and beyond.

We work hard to lift those in poverty to a higher level of financial stability.

Through our five departments of Financial Literacy Training, Food Distribution, Job Search, Entrepreneurship, and coming soon Microfinance Loans, we lift people up to a higher level of financial empowerment.

We speak at churches throughout the island and promote the “Five Dollars for Five Flags Campaign. We apply for grants. We conduct sponsorship drives. We participate in food drives. Through our fundraising events we support our goals of erasing poverty and creating jobs.
