As ONE of the early supporters of our movement to end extreme poverty, I attended the very first DATA event on the "Heart of America" tour back in Dec. 2002 and I have remained a faithful supporter and volunteer of our movement until extreme poverty is no more. As always, Bono was personally engaging and naturally charming - both on and off stage. And his speech was perfect for the occasion. So THANK YOU, BONO & DATA. Your leadership has given us ONE to be the grassroots movement to be a voice for Africa's Future and to end extreme poverty in our world. We couldn't have been as successful as we are without you.~ Take very good care of each other. Blessings are always around. ALWAYS FOREVER, ONE - debbie :) I know that this is off the front page of the ONE blog by now but I just want to say just how proud I felt last Thursday night sitting in the audience watching Bono and DATA receive the Liberty medal Award.

His work is an inspiration to me. " So what, then, are we willing to pledge?" What are we willing to give..how much of ourselves?. Although my work calls me to a different country I feel a solidarity with the message. Thank you Bono and Data for the your compassion and action As always inspired by Bono’s words and plain call to action. His work is an inspiration to me.
