Salma Hayek says: Wear your white band today

Dear Friend:

It looks like a simple white band.

Maybe it is simple: We are going to make poverty history.

Will you join me today and wear the white band to show you support the ONE campaign and the fight against global AIDS and poverty?

You might be a teacher, doctor or mother. You might wear it to school, church or a concert. Whenever and wherever you wear a ONE white band, you say, without even saying a word, that you want more and better international assistance, debt cancellation and trade reform.

Half a million Americans are wearing the white band. I believe we can make that one million by the upcoming G8 summit on July 6th.

Let's do it together: wear your white band today.

From Dr. King to Nelson Mandela, history shows us that big changes can start with small actions. Wearing a white band is something YOU can do, today, in your neighborhood. When you wear a white band you join millions of people in America and around the world calling for change. If you've always wanted to be a part of something that can change our world, in our time, this is your chance.

I hope you will join us: get your white band today!

Thanks,

Salma Hayek
