Write A Letter, Raise the Profile
With just days to go until the November 7 election, we’re asking ONE members to write letters to their local papers to help raise the profile of global poverty.
Read by elected officials, and thousands of your neighbors, letters to the editor are one of the most popular sections of newspapers. (They’re also the first section of the paper I’ll read today – as soon as I get a minute for lunch…)
Use the ONE letter-to-the-editor tool set to write a letter and use the comment section below to tell us how it goes.
