How often do we have the opportunity to change someone's life, or even save it?

People in Need Partnership makes a new kind of relationship possible: connecting people in extreme poverty with others on human, personal basis. In addition to your partnership, a sponsorship plan provides assistance to your partner that focuses on long-term development while also addressing immediate needs.

People in Need Partnership is based on the idea that real change happens through caring, understanding relationships. We provide many tools for mutual understanding and action, and our hope is that by the end of your year-long partnership you will have been able to form a true relationship.

We don’t have to depend on institutions to respond to global poverty and suffering. It is our belief that social injustice is just the symptom of a broken bond, and healing that bond can have unpredictable and far-reaching effects. Acting on many levels, social and personal, external and internal, technical and soulful, People in Need Partnership is a process whose time has come. You can be part of this transformative process of addressing poverty and injustice, on one hand, and isolation and emptiness (of people in developed countries), on the other!
