Make Poverty History
http://www.makepovertyhistory.org/
Site Message: "Every single day, 30,000 children are dying as a result of extreme poverty. This year, 2005, we finally have the resources, knowledge and opportunity to end this shameful situation. In July of this year, 8 world leaders will have it in their power to create the changes which will make poverty history. But they will only use that power if enough people tell them to."
Organizations from over the world and from different religious backgrounds are getting together for this cause to end poverty. You can look at the list of organizations provided at the website, and if you wish, confirm their involvement by going to their respective webpages.
They are aiming to establish trade justice, dropping debt and better aid for the world's poorest nations.
Learn about what you can do.
For those who are US citizens, they can read more at: http://www.data.org/ about how they can call their Senators and Congressional Representatives to leave a message in support of this cause. |
