On Day “ONE” of the next presidency

October 27th, 2008 at 12:49 pm

od1logo.gifOn Day One provides the opportunity for Americans to share what they would like the next president to do on his first day in office. I’m Mark Goldberg, and I run the On Day One web-site. Special thanks to Emily, Maisie and the rest of the OCC crew for giving me this opportunity to share our work with you.

We’ve collected thousands of ideas so far, on topics including climate change, human rights, terrorism, and of course, global poverty. In fact, ONE’s CEO and President David Lane submitted a video and told us why he thinks the next president needs to take on extreme poverty On Day One. Check out the video:

So OCC and On Day One are partnering to help you tell the next president why he must focus on global poverty. Submit your idea to On Day One, then report completion of a partner activity to earn 2,500 points in the ONE Campus Challenge. You can get an additional 250 points for submitting an accompanying video.

Besides the points, you’ll be helping to set the agenda for the next president. After the election, On Day One will deliver the winning ideas directly to the White House. So come on over to On Day One and have your say before the election day deadline on November 4th.

-Mark Goldberg
