WE ARE PARTNERS IN ACTION
Christ-Centered | Sustainable | Social Transformation
Partners in Action is a Christian Nonprofit that focuses on sustainable social transformation through our Christ-centered perspective. Our mission is to create social impact by empowering sustainable humanitarian projects that focus on improving the lives of individuals in underserved communities around the world.
Each of our projects undergoes a rigorous resource assessment and allocation review process which analyzes "The Seven Pillars" that effectively influence every poverty problem. This process is conducted in a metaphorical lab we call "The Poverty Lab."
Partners in Action is Christ-centered and purpose-driven with a goal to spread God’s message in every community we serve.
OUR HISTORY
Partners in Action has served local and global communities since 1986. Founded by a Phoenix-based businessman, Curtis Cluff, Partners in Action was formed to provide low-income housing to families facing homelessness . This vision expanded to providing for the vulnerable in developing countries.
In 1995, Partners in Action received its IRS Group Exemption, which began the exciting journey of empowering others to start and scale other nonprofit ventures.
In 2019, Partners in Action launched The Poverty Lab, a vehicle for economic upliftment in sub-Saharan Africa.
