Poverty is complex. You can help—and we can show you how.
Too many ministry leaders are frustrated with band-aid solutions to poverty. But we believe in a different approach to helping people who are poor. Join our weekly newsletter and get poverty alleviation principles and resources delivered to your inbox.
Here's how we do it:
-
A biblical approach to poverty
Helping people in poverty isn't just about giving them stuff. It's about healing the brokenness at the roots.
-
Resources for your ministry
We offer tools to help you and your team think differently about poverty—and do something about it.
-
Practical training for your team
We'll equip your team to improve an existing ministry or launch a new one using our proven curriculum.
Rethink Poverty.
Through Chalmers, God is transforming people, shaping organizations,
and shifting entire sectors of Christian poverty alleviation ministry.
