Poverty is an issue that affects many millions around the world. To better combat this problem, newer and better ways of assessing the situation need to be implemented. With an ever increasing percentage of the world's population having access to mobile devices, it is in our best interest to make use of this technology for the greater good. By allowing people the chance to snap pictures and videos of those who are affected by homelessness, sickness, hunger and the like, it gives real-time data to those individuals and corporations whose sole mission is to eradicate poverty. This data is as real as it gets; they are actual pictures of people who are suffering and need assistance. It is a great tool in that a picture can tell us a lot about one's situation. As the
pictures and videos start coming in and the markers start filling the map, a more comprehensive view of poverty around the globe can be established. Let's make this a success by helping those who need it most.
*25% of all revenue acquired through Poverty Find will be
donated to At Least One Person Cares (www.alopc.org)
