2,500 – that’s how many new members of ONE signed up last week in the middle of a field in Pennsylvania to join the fight against poverty.
For the last couple weeks, ONE has been traveling to music festivals all over the U.S., signing up new members. Last week, I was at a festival in PA and this week I’m heading to IL. ONE is partnering with Relevant magazine in this effort in a new project called “Reject Apathy”. You can learn more about it here.
