We fight poverty with a radically different approach.At Five & Two, we believe that transformed communities begin with transformed people. When poor or otherwise vulnerable people recognize the value of who they are, and what they have, they discover the hope and agency to better their lives. When an entire community is invited into this process, the potential for change is limitless.Our goal is not only to achieve developmental outcomes, but more importantly to establish the mechanism for sustainable community development into the future. As we help communities mobilize their own people and assets, they develop social capital – the links of mutual trust, interdependency and community action that are necessary for long-term success.One important outcome of our approach is that vulnerable communities are making significant development inroads with little cost to us and our donors. As we minimize the need for material funding, we maximize our ability to support all the teachers, trainers, and organizations in our global network for the foreseeable future.
