The ONE Campaign is a new effort to rally Americans, ONE by ONE, to the cause of ending poverty in our world and achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Through political action, its goals include:

• Direct an additional one percent of the U.S. budget to address extreme poverty.

• Support debt relief for the world’s poorest countries to help them meet the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).

• Make the rules of international trade fair so all may benefit from the global economy.

Become a ONE Lutheran Congregation

The ONE campaign is uniting people around the world ONE by ONE to make poverty history. The ONE Lutheran campaign challenges your congregation to become a ONE Lutheran Congregation by organizing a “ONE Sunday” and achieving three of the following four goals:

• Feature the Millennium Development Goals in a sermon.

• Use ONE resources in Christian education classes for youth and adults.

• Collect an offering for the ELCA World Hunger Appeal

• Meet with federal legislators to advocate for the Millennium Development Goals.

All ONE Congregations will receive a ONE Lutheran banner to display at their place of worship. Please contact the ONE Lutheran coordinator at onelutheran@elca.org or 202-626-7942 for more information.
