- ONE was founded by 11 organizations: Bread for the World, CARE, DATA, International Medical Corps, International Rescue Committee, Mercy Corps, Oxfam America, Plan USA, Save the Children U.S., World Concern, World Vision.
The official launch rally was held on May 16, 2004 at Liberty Mall in Philadelphia. About 2,000 people attended, including Bono, Dikembe Mutombo, Michael W. Smith, Richard Stearns (President of World Vision), and David Beckmann (President of Bread for the World).
In December, ONE announced a $3 million grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Corresponding with this announcement, ONE tried to show the bi-partisan nature of its campaign by having Mark McKinnon, an advisor to President Bush, and Mike McCurry, an advisor to the Kerry Campaign, go on CNN’s Inside Politics with Judy Woodruff in support of ONE.
More than 5,800 people die every day from AIDS in Africa

#1 Sign up on an official make poverty history website to show your support, depending on which country your in, eg. onevote08.org for US, makepovertyhistory.org for UK...
#2 Buy a white band for yourself and some close friends or family that have the same enthusiasm for the cause as you do. I know a lot of you have asked where to get these from. I live in New Zealand so I can help out kiwis but I'm not sure about how the rest of the world can get them. Your best bet is to look for a buy a white band link on your country's website as mentioned in step #1. They actually have a new white band with the words 'No Excuse 2015', check it out here: www.milleniumcampaign.org, buy it here: www.noexcuse2015.org.
#3 Order more white bands to sell to your friends, family, workmates, classmates. Organize a white band stall at your school or at the mall!

Apple new thing you see everyone is trying to help
Copied from their website
Choose (PRODUCT) RED Special Edition iPod models and iTunes Gift Cards, and Apple gives a portion of the purchase price to the Global Fund to fight AIDS in Africa.
Sound affects.
You make choices every day, from the clothes you wear to the music you play. Now making a choice means making a difference. That’s because proceeds from every iPod shuffle, iPod nano, or iTunes Gift Card (PRODUCT) RED sold go directly to the Global Fund to fight AIDS in Africa.
The Global Fund.
The numbers don’t lie: More than 5,800 people die every day from AIDS in Africa, and almost 2,000 children are infected with HIV each day. The Global Fund’s (PRODUCT) RED initiative directs up to 50 percent of gross profits toward African AIDS programs focusing on the health of women and children. Since its introduction, (PRODUCT) RED has delivered over $39.5 million to the Global Fund. And now you can make an impact by purchasing (PRODUCT) RED.

I've just signed a petition to the 2008 presidential candidates asking them to go on the record and tell us exactly where they stand on fighting extreme poverty and global disease.
You can take action on this important cause too by visiting http://www.one.org/ontherecord
