Today we sit down with Delfarib Fanaie, founder of Moms Against Poverty, to hear the deeply personal story that inspired her to start a global movement.

Delfarib shares how a life changing encounter with an 11-year-old orphan became the seed that grew into an organization helping children and families around the world.

Through emotion, purpose, and hope, this conversation reminds us how one person’s compassion can break through barriers and change countless lives.

Breaking Barriers

Welcome to Breaking Barriers, a podcast brought to you by Mom's Against Poverty, to bring a little inspiration into your day.

Hosted by two sisters, moms, and lifelong best friends that have decided to capture the untold stories and conversations of people who have gone from "feeling" like the world is falling apart to actually doing something about it. Moving from the symbolic ideas of service to actual transformation.

Each episode will help listeners feel more grounded, more awake, and more connected to not just to themselves but to the people and world around them.
