Our work depends on the support of members of the public who share their skills to support the fight against extreme poverty.

Every person who gets involved represents hope for those facing poverty and exclusion. Whether it is taking pictures at an event, running a writing workshop for people living in poverty, offering legal advice to homeless families, or translating documents and articles. Your skills can make a real difference in the challenge to overcome poverty.

If you are interested in learning how you can join a project or would like to share your skills, please contact our international center at  or the ATD Fourth World team nearest you.
