Break Poverty Foundation identifies and supports projects that foster the most impact in the fight against poverty. We work alongside experts and international researchers to identify the issues at stake. We select the projects on the basis of rigorous criteria; experience, governance, management and reporting in the following areas :
- Support during early childhood
- Prevention of school dropout
- Access to first employment
- Support for single mothers in precarious situations
We place impact at the heart of our programs and investments to ensure regular and rigorous reporting on the financed programs.
Break Poverty Foundation intervenes in France but also in countries where the destructive effects of poverty can no longer go unaddressed: Sahelian Africa, countries in the Middle East, in India and its neighboring countries.
