I’m feet down in Minneapolis waiting to gain access to the ONE Bus at the Minneapolis Convention Center.
Just like at the DNCC, ONE will partner with WorldVision to host a service project. If you’re in Minneapolis/St. Paul, it’s going to be at CivicFest (the Minneapolis Convention Center) today from 2-5pm in Ballroom B. Confirmed attendees include Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist and McCain family and friends.
Like last week’s event, volunteers will be able to help assemble kits for AIDS caregivers around the world, but today volunteers will also be able to help with WorldVision’s recovery efforts around the Gulf in the wake of Hurricane Gustav.
If you want to help with Hurricane Gustav recovery as well, you can find more information on World Vison’s website.
I’m heading over to the ONE Bus now. More updates in just a few minutes.
