One Campaign

With ties to Nigeris and
Ltondon, One Csmpsign is an
internstionslly recognized non-
profit organization designed to
combat disease snd povercy in
Africs.
Stephsnie Psrrish, Public
Policy student and cu-chair
of One Campaign, helped to
establish a University chapter
of the organization last fall. The
group, she said, set nut to put
pressure on the United States to
provide additional aid to Africa
and inspire American college
students to take action on the
issue.
According to the One Cam-
paign's website, the group is a
"grassroots campaign and advo-
cacy organization hacked by
more than 2 million people." Ic
was co-founded by U2 frontman
Bono and other activists. The
group also works closely with

African policy makers, accord-
ingsto the wehsite.
"We want to act assa voice for
the people who are not heing
heard," Parrish said.
Parrish said she initially
joined One Campaign in search
of anew hobhy and glohal cause.
Many members in One Cam-
paign, she said, joined because
of personal ties to the social and
political issues targeted by the
group.
One Campaign has recently
joined tisc One Campus Chal-
lenge - a competition between
colleges nationwide designed
to raise awareness about global
poverty.
The competition, which
awards the winningaschool with
$10,000, awards points to each
college on the basis of its stu-
dent body's ability to campaign
against poverty. At the end of

the competition, the $10,000
first-place prize will be donated
to the college's non-profit orga-
nization of choice.
The University's chapter of
One Campaign, Parrish said,
plans to host events in an effort
to raise awareness of global
issues and involve students by
having them sign petitions and
write letters to Congress.
"This (competition) can bring
national recognition to the Uni-
versity of Michigan," said Par-
rish.
The University's chapter is
currently in second place overall
behind Missouri State Univer-
sity and has one more opportu-
nity to overtake the leader. The
final event will take place on
campus in two locations - the
Diag and East Quad residence
hail - on May 29.
