Resources

We are passionate about breaking the cycle of poverty & it seems like the more we learn, the more there is to learn on how to do that responsibly.

We've compiled a list of books, articles, podcasts, films, & talks that we've found helpful on our journey. Please let us know if there's a resource you've enjoyed that we should add!
