The Reckoning International began exploring innovative and lasting solutions to poverty over ten years ago. They first redeemed 150 slaves among the Tharu in Nepal, then provided them with opportunities to create a livelihood. Since that time, they have been slowly growing into an efficient organization that is overcoming poverty with opportunity. Through micro-loans, business training, and development initiatives, they've pioneered successful economic development projects in impoverished areas. They're finding that the real solutions to poverty are empowering, sustainable, and found among the poor themselves. People are thriving when given the opportunity to work and become self-supporting.
