ENDING POVERTY AND HUNGER






The United Nations marks the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty on 17th of October every year. Ending Poverty and Hunger especially in the rural areas sounds impossible yet attempt-able. Let us attempt with our little efforts/programs/activities and see if miracles do happen because I believe it does.  Join us as we reach out to the poor and hungry rural dwellers within our communities and make an attempt in making their lives better.  Send an email to theruralpeople@gmail.com for contacts and enquiries.

CRYPTOCURRENCY AT THE RURAL AREAS
