The Story Behind OPAT
One Project at a Time came out of an idea that has been forming for the past decade. When we look at the totality of poverty in the world, it is easy to throw our hands up in the air and declare, "I can't do anything about that." But you can...
OPAT has developed specific projects that are profound and long term so anyone, absolutely ANYONE can make a significant impact on
the poor. And while there are many great organizations doing wonderful charitable work, we have found many who have fallen through the cracks and desperately need your help. Quotes
Archbishop Oscar Romero
"We cannot do everything, but there is a sense of liberation in realizing that. Mother Teresa
"Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love." Projects
OPAT's specific projects are divided into 5 different categories. These will be further explained on the Projects tab.
