ONE Lens To Make A Difference

Ranked #1,612 in Nonprofits, #334,059 overall | Donates to Save the Children

What is ONE?

ONE is a new effort by Americans to rally Americans - ONE by ONE - to fight the emergency of global AIDS and extreme poverty. ONE is students and ministers, punk rockers and NASCAR moms, Americans of all beliefs and every walk of life, united as ONE to help make poverty history. ONE believes that allocating an additional ONE percent of the U.S. budget toward providing basic needs like health, education, clean water and food would transform the futures and hopes of an entire generation in the world's poorest countries. ONE also calls for debt cancellation, trade reform and anti-corruption measures in a comprehensive package to help Africa and the poorest nations beat AIDS and extreme poverty.

 

What does ONE aim to do/change?

ONE aims to help Americans raise their voice as ONE against the emergency of AIDS and extreme poverty, so that decision makers will do more to save millions of lives in the poorest countries.

ONE CAMPAIGN REACTION TO G8 SUMMIT COMMUNIQUÉ:

FIGHT AGAINST GLOBAL AIDS AND EXTREME POVERTY MOVES TO CAPITOL HILL AND HEILIGENDAMM

St. Petersburg, Russia-Today, the leaders of the Group of Eight (G8) recommitted to the 2005 Gleneagles summit's comprehensive plan to accelerate development and help save millions of lives in Africa and the world's poorest countries, but have failed to set the concrete targets necessary to increase effective international assistance and help the world's poorest countries fight poverty. On trade, WTO Director-General Pascal Lamy leaves St. Petersburg with a clear mandate to secure a deal within a month, one that must stay true to the G8 2005 Gleneagles communiqué promise to "make trade work for Africa".

The more you give, the more you get back

Over 2 million people have signed the ONE Declaration - and all have signed as a direct result of being asked by ONE friend, family member, neighbor or colleague.

All of us have a tremendous opportunity to take action and influence those closest to us by learning and talking about these issues. From Dr. King to Nelson Mandela, history shows us that big changes can start with small actions. Together as ONE, we can start to make poverty history.

ONE and the groups behind it have already campaigned effectively to increase assistance against AIDS and also won victories against the massive debts of the poorest countries. We are gaining momentum all the time, and helping save lives and rebuild futures in Africa and around the world with every victory.
