Help One Now empowers families in developing countries through high-capacity local leaders with proven solutions to end extreme poverty.

In 2007, our CEO and Founder, Chris Marlow, met a starving young child living in an abandoned gas station in Zimbabwe. That encounter compelled him to start Help One Now and dedicate his life to seeking justice by empowering leaders and organizing a wide table of people to do good together. Help One Now’s story began with caring for children. However, after years of research and conversations with brilliant local leaders, our model shifted to a more holistic approach and focus on the entire family unit. In the developing communities we serve, empowering families through education and entrepreneurship has proven to be the most effective course for long-term change, creating a hand up to build a better future for themselves and end the cycle of poverty.

Help One Now partners with high-capacity local leaders who are already working effectively in their respective communities in 8 countries around the world. These leaders are friends and partners who share our mission to end extreme poverty. They are our greatest resource, and without them, sustainable change is impossible. We truly believe our greatest gift is one another, and that together we can use our gifts, talents, passions, and resources to empower families and end extreme poverty forever.
