Hearts beat as ONE
Great article came out in the LA Times the other day.
The organization that Bono asked his fans to join is called One: The
Campaign to Make Poverty History. It was formed last year by 11 leading
anti-poverty and charitable organizations, including Care, World Vision
and Bono’s own group, Data — an acronym for debt, AIDS, trade in Africa.
Moral authority has never been a problem for these groups on Capitol
Hill. What they have lacked is political clout. Other than venerable
but limited church networks, development advocates have never built a
mass community of voters for their cause. One wants to change that.
