ARDF and the Millennium
Development Goals
At the United Nations Millennium Summit in September
2000 the largest gathering of world leaders in history
adopted the UN Millennium Declaration, committing their
nations to a new global partnership to reduce extreme
poverty. A set of eight goals were developed, all with
a deadline of 2015 that have become known as the Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs).
The Anglican Relief and Development Fund's mission
statement reflects those goals. ARDF is committed is
to see real life change come to the suffering and the
poor in some of the most challenging parts of the Anglican
Communion. In addition, ARDF is committed to provide
effective and efficient relief and development assistance
for objective high impact projects with measurable transformational
results. ARDF supports the core recommendations of the
Millennium Project through our development partnership
with the Global South and commitment to helping those
most in need both financially and spiritually.
