BREAKING THE CYCLE

Confronting the Realities of Poverty

Systemic poverty relates to circumstances where poverty is deeply rooted in a system or a society, usually due to a combination of factors such as political, economical, and social. Systemic poverty is exemplified by a lack of access to basic needs including but not limited to education, healthcare, food, water, and shelter. Systemic poverty is often perpetuated by systemic inequalities and structures that make it difficult for communities or individuals to break free from any cyclical fashion of poverty. Systemic poverty affects a significant portion of the population and can be challenging to address without widespread systemic changes.
Generational poverty refers to a situation where a family remains poor for at least two consecutive generations. However, some families have been struggling with poverty for even longer periods. Escaping the cycle of poverty is strenuous, especially if one lacks the necessary resources and education to do so. People living in generational poverty often feel hopeless and have difficulty planning for the future. They are just trying to survive each day. This issue has several causes, including racism, financial policies, lack of access to healthcare, and limited access to education.
Situational poverty is caused by a crisis, and if left unaddressed, it can lead to generational poverty. However, the programs designed to alleviate generational poverty can also be helpful for those experiencing situational poverty.

Breaking free from generational poverty is not as easy as it sounds. While hard work, perseverance, and good luck can help, it’s not always enough. Some people lack the resources or skills to work their way out of poverty. It’s not fair to expect individuals to overcome generational poverty when it’s not their fault. We need to be more empathetic and supportive towards those who are trapped in this cycle.

EMPOWERING CHANGE

Fountain of Youth's Customized Approach

At the Fountain of Youth, our main goal is to assist individuals in overcoming the biggest obstacles they face when seeking to make a change. Therefore, it is essential that we offer customized solutions instead of a “one-size-fits-all” approach.

We believe that participants should have the freedom to choose their own goals and have a personal desire for change, which helps them become more invested in the process. Our aim is to provide a helping hand and not just a handout, so that we can create a long-lasting impact. We teach our participants to embrace the journey and continue to achieve success in their lives, even after they have completed the program.

Our model recognizes and celebrates personal achievements, regardless of their size. These achievements initiate personal and professional development, leading to transformative success.

Your generous support is crucial to our mission of eradicating the root causes of generational poverty. By working together with local partners, sharing resources, promoting mindfulness, and providing guidance, we aim to empower individuals to overcome systemic barriers and achieve sustainable success. Every donation we receive brings us one step closer to achieving this goal and making a lasting impact on the lives of our participants.
