Millenium Campaign's Stand Up Video and Song Launch

Last year, more than 116 million people - nearly two percent of the people on earth - participated in "Stand Up and Take Action" at events around the globe to demand that world leaders keep their promises to end poverty and achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015. The MDGs are a set of 8 goals to eradicate extreme poverty and its root causes that 189 world leaders pledged to achieve in the year 2000.

After breaking the Guinness World Record for the largest mobilization of human beings in recorded history last year, we plan to make "Stand Up, Take Action, End Poverty Now" bigger and better than ever before this year. Nearly 2% of the world's population stood with us in 2008, and with your continued help and support we can grow that figure.

August 7, a brand new and very exciting "Stand Up, Take Action, End Poverty Now" song and video was launched. You can stream them instantly or download them to your computer.

What is even more exciting is that this year Millenium Campaign is launching a unique online component to "Stand Up" where by taking a specific e-action you can be a part of the "Stand Up" world record.



We encourage you to check out the song and video, share it with your friends via their new Facebook page and follow Millennium Campaign on all your favorite social media sites.
