Poverty Alleviation Crusaders, Ngo, Ikeja, Nigeria, West Africa

Poverty Alleviation Crusaders (PAC) is an international Non-Governmental Organization.

Through social mobilization and survival techniques, we assist in alleviating poverty through sustainable development projects for the creation of job opportunities, such that the people will be able to earn a living and also to ensure food security such that the people will have enough food for consumption and for export.

We also contribute to diminishing the information gap and to furthering a better understanding of the need to promote democratic rights and good governance, promotion of skills acquisition and self employment schemes.

Our Philosophy

Our work is based on the conviction that to alleviate poverty, Harnessing Community Participation as a major tool to execute our programmes through the Integrated Community Participatory Development Approach.

PAC has found that we cannot celebrate our remarkable achievements in science and technology and other areas of human endeavors, while million of our fellow human beings, continue to live in a world of deprivation and starvation. Our continent faces daunting challenges, above all by poverty now exacerbated by HIV/AIDS pandemic.

Families and the whole society are often caught in a downward spiral of poverty, illness and environmental degradation, spurred on by high population growth rates that outstrip efforts to address other crucial development issues, because most families have too many children that they can hardly cater for.
