Your senators are coming home for August recess, giving you a great opportunity to meet them at their district offices and help advance the fight against global poverty.

Check out ONE’s August recess meetings in your state, and RSVP for the one nearest you.

Over the coming months, the Senate will make critical decisions about helping the world’s poorest people deal with the impact of climate change, as well as the Water for the World Act, funding for programs including the Global Fund, and other aspects of development policy. Your senators care what their constituents have to say, and a face-to-face meeting is the best way for you to voice your concerns.

This is our chance to demonstrate real grassroots support for proven, affordable solutions to extreme poverty and preventable diseases.

Right now, all you have to do is let us know—through your RSVP—which district office you’d be interested in visiting. We need constituents to make the phone calls to set up the times and dates for these meetings, so we’ll fill you in on that information later.

RSVP here.

See you in August!
