Now that we've officially received our 501(c)(3) letter from the United States IRS, we're getting close to launching this new global poverty movement in September 2009 but we need your help. My wife and I [and our three children] want to sincerely invite you to join us in helping fight Extreme Global Poverty. We will donate $1 to the cause of global poverty for EACH person that JOINS this group [personally up to 100K] but with hopes of this group growing to as many people as possible to help grow in awareness and action and to assist us in helping launch our organization. PLEASE DO NOT JOIN IF YOU DO NOT CARE ABOUT GLOBAL POVERTY.

* About 2.7 billion people live on less than $2/day.
* About 1 billion live on less than $1/day.
* 1.1 billion people do not have access to clean water.
* Nearly 25,000 children die daily due to poverty.

We might not be able to save the world but we can certainly make a difference in a family, a town, a village... Even a few dollars can make a difference.

Why are we doing this? Our motivation is not to appear altruistic or righteous. We don't want any pats on the back. We are simply convicted to ACT. We can't afford to not do anything. We have decided to make some life decisions to give $100K to fight global poverty through a new Humanitarian Organization and simply ask that you consider learning together how we can CARE and ACT. Together, we believe we can make a difference. Please take a few minutes to read the F.A.Q.

Please HELP us gather people who care about making a difference in the world:

Every month I make a Vitameal donation to Nourish the Children. This is an actual bag of food that contains enough to feed a child 30 meals. This is NOT a monetary donation where you have no idea where the money goes!! For only $25 a bag you can feed a child for a month. I ask all my Canadian friends to show our true caring spirit and feed a child for a month. The video really says it all. Any questions call me 1-800-319-2393. Following is the web address to VitaMeal

TO ALL SOCIAL SCIENCE RESEARCHERS:

How do global poverty issues affect our voting and consumer behaviors?

The individual’s feelings, attitudes and readiness to act is ultimately determining the policies of the wealthy countries and multinational corporations, who in turn are major determinants of the progress of poorer countries and the welfare of people living there.

The democratic basis of anti-global-poverty policies are hereto left unstudied. This is a call for social sciences researchers to take part the establishing of a new life-saving research field. Join at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=125785651437&ref=nf
