Who is Unite to Fight Poverty?
We’re an advocacy initiative with a passion for fighting poverty.
-
After experiencing financial insecurity and seeing it reflecting in her community of Little Rock, Arkansas, Ciara Callicott founded Unite to Fight Poverty in 2021. Her vision was to create a community of people working to bring awareness to the issue of poverty and also working to combat it using the power of advocacy.
-
What began as one young woman writing letters to her lawmakers has evolved into an organization working across 8 states to unite to fight poverty.
-
After a year of the organization being run by just Ciara and her creative director, Lillian, UTFP has expanded to a full team. Unite to Fight Poverty has become more than just advocacy initiative, it has become a movement.
