More about Modest Needs

Founded in 2002, Modest Needs is an award-winning public charity with a simple but critical mission: we work to stop the cycle of poverty BEFORE it starts for the low-income workers whom conventional philanthropy has forgotten.

We do this by empowering compassionate members of the general public to safely and securely help hard-working, low-income households to afford the kinds of short-term emergency expenses that we've all encountered before: the unexpected car repair, the unanticipated visit to the doctor, or the unusually large heating bill, for example.

Since 2002, by working together in this very 'modest' way, Modest Needs' donors have stopped 10,353 low-income individuals and families from entering the vicious cycle of poverty and a lifetime of dependence on the public welfare system for their survival.

Discover your power to instantly change a life. Please join your friends and neighbors in supporting Modest Needs.

Together, we can make sure that no hard-working person is ever forced to choose between taking a child to the doctor and putting food on the table.

Thank you for visiting Modest Needs. We're glad to have you with us!
