Stand up for the MDGs

Don't know what the MDGs are? You can get more information here. The first goal is to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger. We all play a part so stand up and be counted.


In 2000, world leaders pledged to cut poverty by half by 2015. Yet mid-way to the deadline, it is clear that many countries will not reach this goal — unless they do something radically different.

7 out of 10 of the world’s hungry are women and girls. Stand up against women's poverty. Learn more here. To stand up and be counted click here, view the e-card and then sign the petition.
