Make Poverty History: ONE Singapore

Attending a film screening in support of an Independent Make Poverty History Campaign in Singapore                 

ONE (SINGAPORE) is dedicated to raising public awareness and taking concrete actions to Make Poverty History. Every three seconds a child dies from extreme poverty. But it doesn't have to be this way. The resources and technology exist in the world today to transform the hopes and dreams of an entire generation. From 17th to 19th October 2009, ONE (SINGAPORE)'s supporters joined 173 million people in "Stand Up" and Take Action Against Poverty" to call on world leaders to do the right thing and honour their commitments to end poverty. ONE (SINGAPORE) partners with Transient Workers Count Too (TWC2) on the Cuff Road Project to assist homeless and jobless migrant workers in Singapore; Radio Give Back and the Every ONE Can campaign assist local neighbours in need. ONE (SINGAPORE) also links corporate and non-profit partners in a variety of projects in support of the Millenium Development Goals and the movement to end poverty and inequality.
