Programs

ActionAid doesn't just hand out aid. We work with people in poor countries to give them the power and resources to change their own lives - for good.

We provide immediate assistance where it is needed and work in the halls of power to make sure the policies of influential countries and institutions help rather than harm the interests of poor people.

In over 40 countries across Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas, we take a rights based approach to end poverty for good.




Project TOTO

Do you have what it takes to be an ActionAid outreach blogger? ActionAid Australia is searching for an energetic Australian to be our next outreach blogger, to help give poverty a voice.

Using blogs, Twitter, Facebook and more, the outreach blogger will travel to one of ActionAid's program countries to help locals harness the power of social media to secure their human rights.

You don't need to be a blogging expert, you just need to have an open mind and be passionate about fighting the root causes of poverty.

    I am writing a personal message to you to ask if you could please vote for us in the following competition.  We only have 8 more days to make an impact.  It will only take 2 minutes of your time and it would mean the world to us.  The winning band receives a recording contract with Sony BMG worth $50,000. That would be a dream come true for us!
    Thanks heaps

    hello - thanks for the friend request - also btw - the most important step in dealing adequately with a) climate change & b) world hunger - is to deal with the Overpopulation problem - this first and foremost - in comparision with this - most everything else - (ie all other efforts though well meaning) alas are just going to fall short of the mark...to say the very least.

    N.B. Very important document - please feel free to disseminate further if so inclined - Millions of people need this information...

    kind and wise words from Eduard Albert 'Billy' Meier - in order to help us through these very very difficult times now facing ALL of us.

    We are in serious need of some help.
    Were in the running to play at The Big Exo Day in Sydney.
    But we are waaaayyy behind in votes, and we truly need a miracle to get through.

    Vote as many times as you can, off as many different emails as you can,

    Hello ~ thank you for being a friend of Moonwarriors. 800 dogs & cats are killed every hour in the US, often by inhumane methods such as gassing or heart sticking. This cruel disposal of homeless & stray animals is paid for by your taxes. Sponsors of petitions promoting no-kill alternatives have shown that it would be more cost effective & humane to fund spay-neuter programs, adoption schemes & sanctuaries.

    "What is unconscionable, abominable and outrageous is that animals, healthy and well-behaved, are being killed because someone says there are too many. That is something we do not accept. That is something we find intolerable" - Richard Avanzino, President, San Francisco Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (1997)

    Please visit my blog for more info & to sign petitions to end the animal gas chambers:

    Ban gas chambers, close kill shelters and start sanctuaries - click here to sign petitions

     There are 14, if you could sign at least some that would be great ~ Have a good week ~ Thank you for helping animals

    A Mournful Mother Sang A Haunting Lullaby ~ Love Lynn ©


    Amidst the ocean depths, far below the light,
    A lone whale glides by in her watery flight.
    A cry so lonely, a wailing of despair,
    Something precious lost in the great somewhere.

    Serene, yet watchful, moving always in fear
    Of death's stillness, she searches ever near.
    Pulling sunlight upward with care,
    She caresses the surface and mists the salty air.

    Nothing! Not a movement, except a hulking mass,
    A predator's scent, a watchful, sweeping pass.
    Dangerously taunting, the sight draws her near
    As battered nets pull in Death and despair.

    Her baby! Her angel! Death had claimed its song,
    While a quiet stillness seemed to linger on.
    Across the endless ocean, far below the sky,
    A mournful mother sang a haunting lullaby.
