The One Campaign - an effort by Americans
to rally Americans – one by one – to fight the emergency of global AIDS and
extreme poverty. The ONE Campaign derives its name from the belief 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.
We also call 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

suffering.

Campus Kitchens
- What we do is kind
of a no-brainer. We know there are people in each community who need
nourishing meals. And, we know that every college campus has unserved food
in its dining halls and brilliant students in its classrooms. So we put them
all together. We empower thousands of students each year to recycle food
from their cafeterias, turn these donations into nourishing meals, and
deliver those meals (along with a friendly visit) to those who need it most
in communities across the country. Then, we open up that on-campus kitchen
space to teach culinary skills to unemployed men and women, who in turn
teach the college students a thing or two about poverty, stereotypes, and
what it takes to make it these days.

Heifer International -
Heifer's strategy is to “pass on the
gift.” As people share their animals’ offspring with others – along with
their knowledge, resources, and skills – an expanding network of hope,
dignity, and self-reliance is created that reaches around the globe. This
simple idea of giving families a source of food rather than short-term
relief caught on and has continued for over 60 years. Today, millions of
families in 128 countries have been given the gifts of self-reliance and
hope.
