RIGHT SHARING
Right Sharing of World Resources is a small Quaker organization attempting a very large job. It works to foster change among both the 'haves' and the 'have-nots.' It is a grass roots organization which gives small loans to disadvantaged women to facilitate their producing crops or products which can make them self-supporting as well as raising their status in their communities. From the abundance and generosity of those of us to whom much has been given, those in poverty can share the world's resources rightly.
These are the stated goals of RSWR:
"Goal 1
To provide resources for marginalized women in developing countries to improve the quality of life for the women, their families, and their communities, and to empower these women in a sustainable and self-determined way.
Goal 2
To provide opportunities for those blessed with material resources to explore the burdens of materialism, the power of enough, and global responsibility; and to promote balanced sustainable lifestyles and sharing rightly from abundance."
