We have a bold dream of a future where no one has to live in extreme poverty.
Will you join us?
One Day’s Wages alleviates extreme poverty by partnering with locally led organizations in underserved communities. We believe local leaders best understand their communities’ needs and solutions, so we support them in addressing systemic issues and implementing sustainable solutions. ODW was founded on the belief that everyone can contribute. By encouraging donations equivalent to one day’s wages, we empower ordinary people to make a collective impact. Together, we aim to create a global movement for a more just and beautiful world.
