ONE.
In this new year,
I've got new causes and everything.
there's
The One Campaign, which aims to eliminate AIDS and poverty in the world.
World Vision, which aims to help transform the lives of the world's poorest children and families.
and the Change Me Project, a photography project of some sorts which donates $10 for each submission to the One Campaign.
It's time to start giving and serving instead of just sitting around recieving and taking.
It's not right that there should be people starving and dying for hunger when food is wasted almost everywhere else.
It's not right to be denied of the simple pleasures of food.
and..
imagine being denied the chance of having a regular life.
being normal, like every other kid in the world.
and Aids does that you know..
it strips you, leaving you with little or no hope for a regular life.
especially so if you're poor in a 3rd world nation.
It's just so not right..
to know that there are people dying from hunger especially when i know of people and friends who would spend hundreds of dollars on useless products etc, without blinking their eyes..only to change them and throw them away after a few weeks or months.
I too am guilty of it..for the O2 that i recently purchased..etc.
luxuries that i can do without..
nyeh.
that's why it's important to help spread awareness.
I'm off to look at the Change Me Project.
it's free. and really simple..
just head down to Getty Images and browse through their large selection of photographs,
Choose one that really speaks to you and hits you real hard and everything.
and just submit that photo, together with reasons why you chose it.
It's that simple.
You don't even have to take a photo.
Peaceout.
