InterestsAbout Us
We don't just hand out aid, we give people the power and resources to end their own poverty for good. Friday 26 June 2009 is PoverTee Day and we are asking everyone to swap their suit or uniform and donate £2 to wear a t-shirt for the day. See www.actionaid.org.uk/poverteeday
All the money raised from this auction will be put straight to work and enable us to continue to run our vital programmes in Africa, Asia and The Americas.
