The National STOP Campaign is the collection of STOP Campaigns at various colleges across the U.S.

Students Taking on Poverty (STOP) Campaigns are a united effort of numerous student organizations, businesses, colleges and civic groups. Dedicated to the fight against poverty at the local, national, and international levels, a STOP Campaign is founded upon three avenues – information, motivation, and action.

We believe that informing people about the effect of poverty in society, motivating people to want to help alleviate poverty in a personal way, and providing opportunities for people to take action will allow us to help those affected by it. Whether assisting those instantly impoverished by tragedy, such as the victims of Hurricane Katrina, or assisting those who have dealt with poverty for years, like those in the disadvantaged areas of the world, a STOP Campaign works for those who need the attention and assistance of society.
