Kansas City ONE Update
Greetings!
Many of you have noticed that the KC volunteer chapter of the ONE Campaign has been on a bit of a hiatus. I wanted to let you know that we have not disappeared, however currently are not able to facilitate our regular meetings and monthly awareness-raising events. Therefore, if you are interested in being a part of this coordinating process, please let me know by emailing me at maureendidde@gmail.com or posting a comment here, leaving your contact information. Peter, Bill, and myself are still involved at our own levels, but unable to lead the group at this time.
One of the ways Bill Salyer is continuing is by using his business to spread the word about ONE. The first Monday of each month, he is hosting an informational meeting at 6pm for anyone to come and learn more about ONE or share their experiences. While this is not a meeting meant for event planning, it is a great way to get connected with other interested people. You can join in the first Monday of May at 6pm at Thyme Capsule Nutrition.
A few other ways you can be involved right now is by participating in Displace Me, a nationwide event to raise awareness and support for the Invisible Children campaign. You can attend the Kansas City event on Saturday, April 28 from 3pm until Sunday April 9th at 9am at Kaw Point Riverfront Park at 1401 Fairfax Trafficway in KCK.
Also, AIDS Walk Kansas City takes place on the same day and is a great way to support the fight against AIDS locally and internationally.
Finally, please remember to respond to the emails that you receive from one.org and send emails and make phone calls to your Senators, remembering that it DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE! You can keep tabs on what is happening with US and UN Funding for extreme poverty via Bread for the World, Care, The Global Fund, The ONE Campaign and others linked here on our site. Also, use the link on the right to subscribe to our email list.
Press on in doing your part to fight extreme poverty!
