This past weekend, longtime ONE member and volunteer Michelle Deegan took part in a Walk for Hunger in her home state of Connecticut. Michelle and some fellow ONE members wore ONE shirts to create a presence in their community to help raise awareness of ONE and the world’s poorest people.
By using our voices and incorporating ONE in local events, we are building a movement of Americans that want our country to fight global disease and world wide hunger. Wearing a ONE shirt or a ONE band is a small and easy way to help make a big difference in the world! Way to go Michelle!

Hay Michelle, great to see you are still in this. I met you signing people up at the U2 concert a couple years ago. This is a long term battle. Great that you are sticking with it. Scott
