ZeroPoverty.US are those of us who hear a call to action to think globally and act locally to eradicate extreme poverty within our life times.
Inspired by Jeffrey Sachs’ book "End Of Poverty" which articulates a solution to extreme poverty based on his economic plan
We have adopted a plan to raise our voices and redeem the U.S. role in the world. Make a personal commitment.
Individuals, working in unison, form and shape societies. Great social forces are the mere accumulation of individual actions. Let the future say of our generation that we worked together to heal the world.
We Don’t Need Special Powers to Make a Difference Every Person’s a Hero. “What is a hero?”
A Hero is someone who uses his powers to help or save other people.

SUBMIT THIS DECLARATION/PETITION TO YOUR CITY HALL, TO HAVE PASSED AS A PROCLAMATION. A PUBLIC POLICY DOCUMENT THAT DECLARES YOUR CITY A "MILLENNIUM CITY"
