Big thanks to all who have sent in their ONE photos! Send your picture
wearing the whiteband to ONEpicture@data.org. I wanted to share
one of the emails we received from Xavier, age 9, New Jersey.
Xavier writes: I believe there shouldn’t be anyone, especially children
on our planet with out food, shelter and medicine for when they get
sick!
I saw Mr. Nelson Mandela on a TV commercial asking for our help to stop
poverty. I couldn’t stop thinking about all the babies starving.
I told my mother I really want to help with this campaign. Since then
we have emailed & talked to everyone we know in the world asking
for help.
You are number one in my book. Thank you for all you do.
Yesterday we launched the new ONE
campaign “Click Spot” featuring some of the biggest names in music and
Hollywood, including Tom Hanks, George Clooney, Jamie Foxx, Cameron Diaz,
Penelope Cruz, Brad Pitt, Gwen Stefani, Dave Matthews, Coldplay, Sean “P. Diddy”
Combs, 50 Cent and Bono.

fighting global AIDS and extreme poverty—all we need is your
