Resources for teaching creatively about global wealth disparity for all ages.

When RSWR was founded, one of the goals was to provide educational programming in the US to encourage discussion and understanding of how the imbalance of world wealth has long-term negative outcomes for our world. To fulfill the second part of our mission, RSWR has developed many resources to educate about global wealth disparities and the experiences of our partners. These are available for use by your meeting, church, or community group when looking for an activity that will bring people together to engage cooperatively and generate meaningful discussion.

Gratitude Calendar

Children's gratitude calendar

Have you ever given thanks for your toilet? How about your electrical outlets? What about your warm socks?

This calendar, which is available in both adult and children’s versions, encourages us all to think about and appreciate the many comforts and conveniences of modern American life that we often take for granted. An item is listed for each day of the month. For each item earning a “thank you,” participants are invited to give a small donation to Right Sharing.

Ten Chairs of Global Inequality

Ten Chairs of Global Inequality

If your group is small, this game can help children or adults learn similar concepts. If your group is really small, it can even be played as the “Five Chairs of Global Inequality.” This game doesn’t take long to play, and can also be used as part of a children’s message in Meeting for Worship.

Food Sharing Game

The Food Sharing Game is for young children, ages 5-8. It follows a common board game format for children, where players throw a die and move around a board collecting items. However, this game has a twist to it. Unlike most games where players look out only for themselves and “winning” means getting the most for oneself at the expense of others, this game encourages sharing and helping others, and “winning” means everyone has enough.

Graham Cracker Game

Graham Crackers

The Graham Cracker game is a simulation game that gives participants a feel for global inequality, both in terms of space and distribution of world resources. It can be used in older children's Sunday (or First Day) School classes, adult education classes, youth groups, and inter-generational groups. 

There should be at least 15 people to play, and the game takes approximately one hour.
