Dear Friend,
This summer, President Bush and seven other leaders from the world's wealthiest nations will gather to discuss the fate of the ONE billion people around the world living in extreme poverty. In early July, the Group of Eight (G8) will discuss the major social, political and economic conditions that contribute to extreme poverty. There are historic plans in place to beat poverty in Africa and the poorest countries. This is our chance to support our leaders in making these
plans a reality. Let's raise our voices as ONE to Make Poverty History.
Tell your friends about ONE today!
Your voice is already making a difference.
Yesterday's Washington Post featured ONE and our efforts to build "a permanent big-tent movement" to urge President Bush and other world leaders to take action at the G8 and lead an entire generation out of poverty. Together we can build this movement.

I think AID Omaha should pickup some white bands (10 pack for $10) and sell them on campus, and at least raise some LOCAL support for this! How cool would it be to see the UNO campus filled with white bands! =)
I also copied a letter from ONE about Brad Pitt's visit to Africa in support of the ONE campaign on. "We are the first generation that can eradicate poverty" - Millennium Campaign and remember our video conference back on March 30th about Rich Countries, Poor Countries??? - please listen to Jeffery Sach's on NPR or read about How To End Poverty from TIME magazine's March 14th issue.
