The ONE Campus Challenge Needs Your Vote!

We invited more than 2,000 schools in the ONE Campus Challenge to make 90-second video messages asking their senators for support on three critical development priorities: the Global Fund, the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunizations (GAVI), and agricultural development.

We had some great submissions, but three really stood out — and now we need your vote to help determine the winner.

Find out which schools made the finals and vote for your favorite video here.

These videos, and the others we received, all represent the next generation of global poverty-fighters. They show that students care…and students vote. We’re super-impressed with how well these students understand the tough issues we asked them to tackle, and how hard they are working to get through to their senators.

Cast your vote right away and your favorite college or university (even if they don’t have a video in the finals) will get 50 points in the ONE Campus Challenge. The finalist school that gets the most votes wins 25,000 points — enough to secure a spot in the top 20 and be eligible for a trip to Africa next summer, as well as other exciting prizes to help further our movement.

The winning school will also get a visit from ONE staff and have their video featured on the ONE website and social networks.

So help encourage the college-level fight against global poverty. Cast your vote today.
