Good Morning San Francisco!

We’re here and we’re rearing to go.


Some super volunteers have shown up early to see if they can help out. Jimmy Yanez and Nina Torres are manning the registration table. Jimmy first heard and signed up for ONE back during the Live Eight concerts in 2005. Nina Torres signed up for ONE in 2006 and handed out ONE bracelets in the store she managed in Sacremento, California.


Katie Clifford also showed up early. She first heard about ONE from TV commercials last year. When she saw the commercials, she says, she was interested in what the celebrities had to say, rather than the celebrities themselves, and she’s excited to learn how to do hands on work.


Roneal Jit and Ronita Jit are siblings from San Francisco. The both saw the commercials, but Roneal first became connected to ONE when he found the ONE Declaration on a MySpace page. They’re both excited to meet other members and help out.
