Concept information
Preferred term
faith-based antipoverty programs
Definition
- MOST RELIGIOUS GROUPS are motivated to improve the human condition and routinely engage in social action programs to lift others out of dire circumstances. Indeed, a central mission of many religious groups is to show charity to the less fortunate, and faith-based organizations (FBOs) have engaged in social service efforts long before modern governments became involved in antipoverty activities.
