While traveling in remote rural areas of India recently, I met low caste and\u00a0outcast\u00a0people (Dalits) who struggle year-round just to survive. I met the man in this photo who\u00a0hasn&#8217;t\u00a0been able adequately provide for the needs of his family. He is one of nearly one billion people in the world who live on less than one dollar a day. Now because of a small loan from a CWR-sponsored project, he was able to rent a small piece of property and grow peanuts. With this cash crop he will be able to buy food for his family and continue to farm the land.<\/p>\n<p>Covenant World Relief responds to disasters and supports long-term community development projects among the most vulnerable all year long.
