Poverty is a major social issue that prevents many individuals and families from meeting basic needs such as food, housing, healthcare, and education. Addressing poverty can improve quality of life and create more opportunities for people to achieve long-term stability and success.
This problem matters to me because I believe everyone deserves an equal opportunity to succeed, regardless of their financial situation. Reducing poverty supports stronger communities by improving access to education, healthcare, and basic resources, helping people build a better future.
The initial target audience includes low-income individuals and families who struggle to afford basic necessities such as food, housing, healthcare, and education. It also includes children, unemployed individuals, and people experiencing financial hardship who need support and access to community resources.
The target audience shares the experience of struggling to afford basic necessities such as food, housing, healthcare, and education. Many are low-income individuals, unemployed workers, or families facing financial hardship who need access to community resources and support services.
A low-income parent struggles to pay for food, rent, and healthcare. They use the community resource website to quickly find local food assistance, housing support, and job opportunities, making it easier to get the help they need.
The deeper motivation of the target audience is to achieve financial stability, security, and peace of mind. They want reliable access to basic necessities and opportunities that will help them build a better future for themselves and their families.
Today, many people solve this problem by visiting food banks, applying for government assistance, searching online for community resources, and asking local organizations, friends, or family for help.
The predominant feeling is stress and frustration. Many people also experience anxiety because they are unsure where to find the help they need or whether they will be able to meet their basic needs.
I observed people experiencing poverty through YouTube documentaries and interviews. I also reflected on my own experience of living in poverty at a young age. From my personal experience, I remember how difficult it was to access basic necessities and how stressful financial hardship could be for a family. Combining these personal experiences with the videos helped me better understand the challenges people face when trying to find food, housing, healthcare, and other community resources.
