The PROBLEM, projections suggest that by 2030, nearly 9 in10 extremely poor people will reside in Sub-Saharan Africa. A substantial portion of the underserved population lacks access to critical resources, tools and support due to widespread structural issues; poverty, ignorance of opportunities, skills and literacy rate.
