Domestic Projects
Our development strategy includes an emphasis on shaping local actions which affect global poverty and sustainability. These domestic ESW projects embrace the concept of thinking globally, and acting locally.
ESW's development work is aimed at improving the welfare of poor people all over the world, including those in our own communities. According to the US Census Bureau in the year 2000, 31 million Americans were below the poverty line.
