Sign the ONE Letter to President Bush and ask him to fight poverty at the World Summit.

On September 14th, leaders from more than 170 nations will meet in
New York City. At the very heart of this largest gathering of
world leaders in history will be progress on agreed, international
goals like getting every child into school, helping every community get
clean water and fighting AIDS and malaria. Simply put, achieving
these “Millennium Development Goals” would transform the hopes of a generation.
