For the first time in history, our generation has the tools, technology, and resources to end extreme poverty, and yet, a billion people still live on less than a dollar a day.
What's missing is the will.
The Campus Challenge (OCC) is about building that will. Whether that means recruiting friends, sending letters to Congress, or raising visibility by snapping a shot of your mascot in a ONE shirt, we'll give you the tools and information to take action and track your progress along the way.
Hopefully, like the students last year, you'll also have a little fun along the way.
Students have played crucial roles in every great movement in American history. From the abolitionists, to the suffrage and civil rights movements and apartheid, students have been able to create energy, focus the nation's attention and create real change. This generation is no different.
The only question that remains is: Will we do it?
