ONE: The Campaign To Make Poverty History


The One Campaign: “WE BELIEVE that in the best American tradition of helping others help themselves, now is the time to join with other countries in a historic pact for compassion and justice to help the poorest people of the world overcome AIDS and extreme poverty. WE RECOGNIZE that a pact including such measures as fair trade, debt relief, fighting corruption and directing additional resources for basic needs – education, health, clean water, food, and care for orphans – would transform the futures and hopes of an entire generation in the poorest countries, at a cost equal to just one percent more of the US budget. WE COMMIT ourselves - one person, one voice, one vote at a time - to make a better, safer world for all.”

Only way to stop poverty is by teaching them FAMILY PLANNING. The fewer children they have, the better the chances for them to feed the rest of the family.

As long as they keep having dozens of kids, Poverty will be a vicious cycle.
