This website is in support of the ONE.org website. ONE is an incredible organization asking Americans to stand together as a voice of ONE to end poverty and AIDS in our life-time. ONE stresses that by directing only 1% of the US budget towards fight poverty and AIDS we can help some of the poorest people and their countries by: "helping the world's poorest, help themselves." I believe that ALL Americans should stand together as ONE but I also believe that as students, the younger generation, we are part of a generation that will be very vital in this fight. I believe we are one of the most fortunate generations, we have a better idea of our sorroundings and world views, and I beleive that together as ONE we can be a large part of this fight. I created this website for several reasons:
- To raise awareness about the message ONE is promoting.
- To act as a place where we could get together to
talk and act on the issues ONE brings attention too.
- A base to get info, cooridinate, and share ideas.
- To bring together our generation so that we, the future
of America, can help ONE in the fight to end poverty and AIDS
everywhere!
So check this website out, visit www.one.org, use the blog to chat and share ideas, and let's step up to the plate. It dosen't matter where you are from, if have an idea or story to share, let's act as ONE for ONE.
