Partners Worldwide seeks “to end poverty so that all may have life and have it abundantly.” This mission is very redemptive focused. On their website, they point out that poverty has risen due to Covid-19, and because of that they want to help stop it. Poverty has always been in our world and will be until Christ returns, but as God’s children we have a mission to bring redemption to the world through His Spirit. Partners Worldwide is seeking to bring redemption through ending poverty. They have an innovative mindset. Other organizations will do food drives or send food around the world or raise money for communities, but Partners Worldwide seeks to bring jobs and careers to the places that need it most. Their approach as stated on the website is “We partner with locally-led organizations to support business growth and job creation so that people may be equipped to lift themselves—and their families and communities—out of poverty for good.”
This venture does not put a band-aid on a bullet-hole wound, but, instead, this solution provides a lasting cure. With this business people are being equipped to work in their community and provide value where there formally was none. Also, people who formerly had no job or way of income are able to work and provide for their family. This is a wonderful venture, and I hope it continues to prosper.
In 2020-2021, they provided 254,199 jobs, 76 local community institutions, 15,018 jobs created, 239,171 jobs sustained, 43,977 graduates of business training, and $12,773,363 loans distributed. If you want to see their other successes take a look at their website.
