Poverty and severe hardship affect more than a million Australians. Around the world,more than a billion people are desperately poor. In Anti-Poverty Week help fight Poverty and Hardship. Why not organise a display, stall or award? Maybe a workshop, lecture or forum? How about a fundraiser, fact sheet or petition? What is Your School Doing For Anti-Poverty Week? Send us details of your activity, including some pictures if you can, and we will put the ones we like best from each state and territory on our website for everyone to see. See the Schools Page for more information and get thinking about what you can do for poverty.
