ONE EPISCOPALIAN CAMPAIGN



A partnership has been formed between the Epsicopal Church and the One campaign to end hunger. FROM THE EPISCOPAL PUBLIC POLICY NETWORK website:
BE A ONE EPISCOPALIAN

Sign the pledge and register to be a ONE Episcopalian. When you register you will be sent to the ONE Campaign to sign their pledge as well.


WE BELIEVE that in the best American tradition of helping others help themselves, now is the time to join with other countries in a historic pact for compassion and justice to help the poorest people of the world overcome AIDS and extreme poverty.

WE RECOGNIZE
that a pact including such measures as fair trade, debt relief, fighting corruption and directing additional resources for basic needs education, health, clean water, food, and care for orphans would transform the futures and hopes of an entire generation in the poorest countries, at a cost equal to just one percent more of the US budget.

WE COMMIT
ourselves - one person, one voice, one vote at a time - to make a better, safer world for all.
