TAVOS - Building together. Rewarding each other. Leaving poverty behind

Latin America is overwhelmed by poverty. Despite the current high level of civic participation, social co-responsibility, and community enterprising, communities can do much more. TAVOS is a new internet service that enables communities and nonprofits to self-organize to harness the abundant and available talent and resources of their communities to meet their needs and leave poverty behind.
