Form a genuine relationship with a person in extreme poverty

People in Need Partnership is a new kind of ‘sponsorship’ program that helps form genuine relationships between people in extreme poverty and others. Modern technology presents us with a lot of missed opportunities. Instead of making the world more fragmented, we can use it to cultivate deeper relationships with more understanding. That is the goal of PINP.

We are continually adding new tools for relationships, based in our center in Port-au-Prince, Haiti and all over. For instance, we now offer live video conferencing using the technique of ‘re-evaluation counseling,’ in which partners learn to listen and share what they care about most.

You can form a relationship with a child slave, or a girl or mother from a starving family, for $15 - $25 per month. You will have many opportunities, through messaging, photos and videos and many other ways, to become a real partner and friend, as well as providing crucial assistance. There is complete transparency in the use of your funds. We don’t have to turn to large organizations to address global problems. We can do this ourselves, personally, thoughtfully and transformatively. Please take a look at our website and see what I mean!
