The week of Live Below the Line is a week like no other. From May 16th - 20th, thousands of Australians will spend just $2 each on food, and use their daily experiences to bring extreme poverty to the centre of conversation in homes, businesses and schools around Australia.

We'll do this because while we struggle to Live Below the Line for a week, there are 1.4 billion people who live below it every day: forced to make choices between basic necessities like food, medicine and education.

You can sign up for this life-changing challenge at www.livebelowtheline.com.au.

Your participation will help us fundamentally change the way Australians think about the issue of extreme poverty, and raise crucial funds for projects that fight the root causes of poverty, and help developing communities break the cycle of poverty
