Our approach
Our primary focus is on children growing up in extreme poverty, who do have some food, clothing and shelter, but whose life situation (e.g., malnutrition and/or lack of resources) puts them at increased risk of dropping out of school or not being able to attend school at all. In doing so, we give priority to children who are missing one or both parents. Pasuk Foundation does not discriminate in terms of ethnicity or religion.
Poverty Alleviation
Poverty is not just a lack of money, food or education. Poverty is a complex problem that can only be fought effectively if it is addressed on several fronts. That is why we support Pasuk children with an integrated approach to their mental, physical, social and spiritual poverty.
