Abstract
There have been numerous endeavors to combat poverty in human society. Material backing alone may temporarily relieve financial distress of impoverished people but can hardly eradicate the roots of poverty. Comparatively, poverty alleviation through education (PATE) have been widely recognized as a more effective and sustainable strategy for reducing poverty. Education can change the lives of the underprivileged by equip them with valuable knowledge and skills, which predict better job opportunities and brighter prospects of personal development.
