Over 1/6 of humanity lives in extreme poverty or on less than $1/day.
The practical solutions and interventions needed to eradicate extreme poverty by the year 2025 are currently available.
$1/day donation over the course of one year will start one family on the path out of extreme poverty.

ASAP members bring this message to their families, friends, peers and neighbors. As chapters and clubs, ASAP members bring the message to elementary and middle schools, and other universities and high schools. They share it with their local churches, businesses and community members. They are committed to building awareness of extreme poverty so that others may have opportunities to overcome it.
