Make Poverty History

About Me

I'm a massive global campaign to eradicate global poverty.

Stand Up and Speak Out Against Poverty! October 17 2007

Last year over 43.7 MILLION people around the globe took a stand against poverty on the international day for the eradication of poverty by participating in "Stand Up"events in their local communities.

The Guinness World Records called it 'the largest single-coordinated movement of people in the history of Guinness World Records.’

This year, YOU can help us break this record. To find out more visit our blog or go to for more details
