Then what happens? Eventually, the cycle of poverty breaks. One family at a time.

United Way’s Square One Project is working to create “community hubs” inside schools or community centers, providing user-friendly places for youths and families to get connected to resources, referrals and services that strengthen families and neighborhoods.

These hubs will give children and adults access to a wide variety of services including preventive health services, social services, grade-level literacy support, financial coaching, free tax preparation and GED classes, and access to housing and employment resources.

Never before has efforts from global humanitarian agencies, national governments, and individuals been dedicated to ending extreme poverty and hunger than today. From global commitments like Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to Social Development Goals (SDGs), we are continually committing resources to ending the cycle of poverty in the developing world.

They direct their efforts towards different interventions like increasing opportunities in education and income, providing access to health facilities, income, water, and other forms of infrastructure. Though progress is not as fast as it should be, statistics indicate that there is some level of development. Governments in the developing words are also committing to providing an enabling environment for prosperity and be accountable for the aid they receive.

With such improved access to socioeconomic resources, poor people have the opportunity to escape the cycle of poverty and define a different future for themselves and their families (Mark Owuor Otieno, 2017).
