Helpful Study Material: When you start talking global poverty and international aid, you’re going to hear the same questions and misconceptions over and over. Once you’re armed with the facts and comfortable explaining why it’s in the best interest of the United States to improve conditions for the world’s poor, you’ll find it’s very easy to serve as an advocate for the world’s poor.
