ONE

ONE is a new effort by Americans to rally Americans – ONE by ONE – to fight the emergency of global AIDS and extreme poverty. The ONE Campaign is engaging Americans through a diverse coalition of faith-based and anti-poverty organizations to show the steps people can take, ONE by ONE, to fight global AIDS and poverty.

The G8, or the ‘Group of Eight’ Summit is an annual gathering of leaders from the world’s eight wealthiest and most powerful countries (Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States). On July 6th, these leaders will gather in Scotland to decide the fate of an entire generation living on less than ONE dollar a day.

On July 6th – 8th, President Bush and other G8 leaders will discuss the major social, political and economic conditions that leave nearly ONE billion people living in extreme poverty – nearly half of whom live in Sub-Saharan Africa. You can sign a letter to President Bush and other world leaders to let them know just how important these issues are, and together as ONE, we can Make Poverty History this July.
