T - Talk - to your children, your family, your friends, your church - about poverty in your neighbourhoods, your cities, your country, and the world.
A - Act. Donate money, food, clothing, furniture, toys. Volunteer.
K - Knit - sweaters, mittens, toques, socks, gloves, hats...
E - Educate yourself. Read the newspaper, consider the statistics.
A - Assemble. We can't solve this problem on our own. But we can if we work together.
C - Consume less. Eat less. Buy only what you'll use. When you buy new things, donate the old.
T - Talk some more - to your politicians, leaders, aid organizations.
I - Insist that poverty cessation be a priority where you are.
O - Own the problem. Poverty is not THEIR problem. Poverty is OUR problem.
N - Now. If not now, then when?
TAKE ACTION.
No matter what poverty looks like to you, TAKE ACTION AGAINST IT.
We are equipped to SOLVE the problem of global poverty.
TAKE ACTION.
