Christian Community Action - No More Crumbs Campaign!

No More Crumbs Campaign.

 

It has been our experience that people who are poor are so weighed down by the challenges of living in poverty that they are content to take “the crumbs” offered to them by the government.

For the past two years, the Advocacy & Education Project has partnered with Clifford Beers Guidance Clinic to present a marketing campaign that says "No More Crumbs” and “We Believe There is Enough”. A Recipe for Success was created (see below). The campaign is designed to build a grassroots constituency that joined service providers and advocates in the community to speak out on the issues that impact their lives.
