An uplifting reminder from Nicholas Kristof that the world's work on extreme poverty IS working. 
I find it's all too easy to feel overwhelmed by the scope and scale of the issues facing children in the developing world, and it's important to reflect for a moment on the fact that our daily work, in all its profound and mundane glory, is helping to end extreme poverty. 

What motivates you in your work?  In what ways do you recharge or reflect?
