Imagine not being able to feed, educate or provide health care for your family, to wake up every morning knowing that your very existence is a struggle. This inspiring film shows how a groundbreaking organization has helped thousands of people in these circumstances. Founded in 1979, the Trickle Up Program (Tel: 866-246-9980) helps the poorest of the poor take their first step up out of poverty by providing them with conditional seed capital grants and business training to help them start or expand their own businesses. The organization empowers the world's most impoverished people in Africa, the Americas, Asia and the United States, to realize their potential and strengthen their communities. The Trickle Up Program philosophy is simple: provide a way for people with the lowest income to start their own businesses, and they will seize the opportunity to help themselves - and this belief has been confirmed more than a hundred thousand times. Produced by The Visionaries.
