How is ICM Different?

ICM is uniquely focused on serving the ultra-poor. Many people living in ultra-poverty survive on less than US$0.50 per person per day and have critical needs that go unmet.

We are data-driven

ICM takes a business approach to fighting poverty. We are effective, efficient, and scalable, and our results show it:

0m

Over 500 million data points collected

0%

Reduction in serious illness

0%

Increase in income after four-months among ultra-poor

0%

Increased social safety net

We are growing

We believe we can always do better tomorrow than we did yesterday. ICM is a charity that values innovation. We seek to grow our impact in three dimensions.

Expanding our geographic reach

Deeper

Improving our impact through research and innovation

Stronger

Maintaining growth through sustainability strategies

At ICM, we spend just 5% on administrative costs in the Philippines. We are transparent with our finances and commit to maximizing every dollar you give. That means you can be confident that your gift is always reaching the people who need it most.

We need your help
