Action for Children in Conflict
http://www.actionchildren.org
| Mission & Activitiies: | Action for Children in Conflict (AfCiC) works to assist and transform the lives of children affected by various forms of conflict or crisis be it war, extreme poverty, hunger, illness, persecution, or neglect. Our projects focus on helping some of the most disadvantaged, disenfranchised and socially excluded children and young people in Africa. The children we work with come from backgrounds of abject poverty, family breakdown and abuse - both verbal and physical. They are in conflict with the law, living and working in the streets and have little or no access to formal education. Many resort to substance abuse as a means of escaping the cold and hunger which pervade their daily lives. We believe that these children and young people have the capacity to change their own lives for the better, and it is our role to nurture this process. AfCiC works alongside the children and young people, helping to transform them into responsible individuals and productive members of their community, and empowering them to make positive decisions about their futures. |

The United States Environmental Protection Agency will be making a decision on the ultimate clean up plan for this Ringwood Mines/Landfill Superfund Site. This tragic saga was investigated in HBO’s new documentary, “Mann v. Ford,” which revealed that the community’s devastating health impacts continue, with the cancer-causing dioxin at high levels in residents’ attics and neighboring mines filled with huge quantities of toxic waste, just upstream from the drinking water source for over one million people. Don’t let Ford Motor Company get away with capping the site and leaving thousands of tons of paint sludge behind! Tell USEPA to make Ford completely clean up the site! Take action now!

| Actions to Take: | All are welcome to come to our FIRST ANNUAL CLEAR CREEK FESTIVAL FOR PEACE AND FREEDOM - September 3rd through September 11th, 2011 The Festival will be broadcast on Peace Day TV, the United Nations "Peace Day" site, and with numerous other collaborators allowing the event to reach a combined viewing audience of 200 million. The RockPile Amphitheatre is located on State Road 99 and Clear Creek, just a few miles southeast of Winslow, Arizona. Our goal is to work with the Clear Creek Association for the Arts, Inc. (a not for profit organization) to create an inclusive center for the arts. Here not only will we be able to offer entertainment via the performing arts, but show the art of our region to the world. The artists will reach out to educate the next generation of artists. Eventually, we hope to be a benefit to the region, offering our services to create a tourism base that will drive the economy. What we are endeavoring to do will take community involvement at all levels to guarantee success. Lend a hand, and build a future for our area. 50% of the net profit will go directly into the surrounding community to enhance the quality of life of those in need, and sponsor the arts. Ivan Sidney has come on board to lend a hand, along with the Hopi representatives for tourism. Ivan was Tribal Chairman of the Hopi Tribe at one time, and is well connected in the community. He, also, plays with "The Clansmen" band, and will be on stage at the Festival. With Ivan many bridges came into place. Whereas, the Hopi were already playing a small part in the festival, now they will play a major roll. Everything is as it should be. My personal thanks go out to Alford "Al" Jackson, Alan Moore of Musicians and Artists for Peace, Nashville Musicians and Artists for Peace, Peace Day TV, Stephen Fantl, Executive Director, Wild Oats Records, Steve Haggard, Heidi Little, Essra Mohawk, Garry Jackson, Randall Merryman, Todd Roth, and numerous others for their help and advise on this project. I would also like to acknowledge Winslow City Councilman Tom Chacon for his advice and help, and Navajo County District III Supervisor, J. R. DeSpain for the same. With all of this help, and the miraculous events that have helped create The RockPile Amphitheatre, we can only succeed! If I have forgotten someone I do apologize, but this list will grow as we work towards the festival.

Orphans for Christ in Africa
http://orphansforchristinafrica.giving.officelive.com
| Mission & Activitiies: | Orphans for Christ in Africa (OCA), is non-sectarian, non-denominational Christian Childcare and youth Development Organisation (NGO), supporting orphans, vulnerable children and disadvantaged youth and their communities in Uganda. We seek to stand as a voice for the parentless children & youth in communities all over Uganda. OCA cares for orphans and disadvantaged children and youth in orphanages, children’s homes and through foster family care programmes. OCA depends entirely on the generous support from private individual, families, volunteers, organisations, foundations, friends and well-wishers from all over the world. Mission: Orphans for Christ in Africa exists with a mission to rescue disadvantaged children, releasing them from the bondage of poverty and misery, improving their physical well-being, enhancing their education opportunities, providing safe them shelter and granting each one equal opportunity to discover, explore, develop and realize their God-given full potential. Holistic Approach to Child Care & Support: OCA defines an orphan as a child who has lost either one or both parents. This broader definition was adopted by UNICEF in response to the AIDS pandemic and highlights the plight of impoverished children with one remaining parent who may have difficulty providing for them. The terms "single orphan" and "double orphan" are used to provide clarity when referring to orphans who have lost one parent and both parents respectively. All OCA staff and volunteers treat all children under our care with love and respect just as they would their own children. OCA does not tolerate any emotional, verbal, physical and/or sexual abuse of children. We endeavour to protect all children under our care from any form of abuse to the best of our ability. We report to the proper authorities any allegations of child abuse that come to our attention We endeavour to meet both physical and spiritual needs of all children and youth under our care as part of our holistic approach to child support. We provide shelter in orphanages for homeless children , early childhood education, food and clothing, health care, life skills and vocational training, Computer & ICT Skill training, child sponsorships , in-kind support, and spiritual teaching, to orphans, vulnerable disadvantaged children ages 2-12 years, and disadvantaged youth ages 13-17 years, both boys and girls. Our Spiritual Nourishment and Development OCA is a non-sectarian, non-denominational, Evangelical Christian organisation, duly registered in Uganda as a Christian NGO. OCA subscribes to the Historical Evangelical Christian Faith, as contained in both the Old and New Testament Scriptures (the Holy Bible). We thus, work in partnership with all other Evangelical Christian Churches, organizations and groups from around the world. (Our Statement of Faith can be availed to you on request). We get involved in the spiritual work providing spiritual nourishment and development to children and youth and all people OCA ministers to in the hope that each one will enter into a personal commitment and intimate relationship with the Lord. This we do through daily time of prayer, Bible reading and worship, Bible clubs, music dance and drama activities, Bible study fellowships, weekend Bible clubs, Sunday worship services, and by sharing the gospel one-on-one and with groups in communities where we work and through sports evangelism. Current Orphan Care Programmes & Projects: In 2011/2012, OCA is focusing resources in the following areas of Great Need: Orphanages & Children’s Homes OCA runs Tororo Children's Home, with 60 orphans ages 3-12 years, in Tororo town, and Kamwokya Child Support Centre, supporting another 60 orphans ages 3-12, in Kamwokya Slum of Kampala city. The centers provide loving and safe environment for the children to live an attend school. Financial support helps provide for the daily meals for the children of at least 3 meals per day, medical care, beddings, clothing, shoes, and recreational activities. Child Sponsorship Through the help of child sponsors, and donors, we provide educational sponsorship to school age children: paying for their school fees, school uniforms, supplies and equipment, meals at school and transportation to and from school. Donors can offer to sponsor a child or a number of children in school for a year or two more years, and/or offer to provide long-term sponsorship to a particular child or children of your choice. Donors can also offer to provide financial and /or material support for an entire orphanage(s). Life Skills and Vocational Training Currently, OCA is running two Computer & ICT skills training Centres, one in Kampala and another in Tororo Centers. The ICT Skills training provides ICT Skills in Microsoft Office Programs (MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Publisher), and communications skills covering Internet and the World Wide Webb, Web designing and development, computer repair and maintenance, among others. Our future plan is to include carpentry and joinery skills, tailoring and dressmaking skills, catering skills, and music, dance and drama skills. Donors can offer to provide funding to sponsor an individual child/youth to acquire these skills or offer to support several children or sponsor a full class of 25 students to learn ICT skills for a one 4-months semester training program. Hope for Kids Christmas Gift Celebrations: Each year, OCA hold an annual Hope for Kids Christmas Gifts Party celebration that take place every December 23, a few days before Christmas. The objective of this project is to provide tangible Christmas gifts and presents to disadvantaged children at the orphanages to enable them share in the joy and blessing of Christmas. Donors can offer to provide funding to purchase Christmas gifts for the children in Uganda, provide gifts in-kind, offer to provide funding for shipping donated goods or provide funds for purchasing foodstuff and beverages for the children attending the event. Volunteer Placements OCA offers volunteer opportunities for individuals, families, groups, or teams to volunteer with us in orphanages and children homes and youth programs and projects that benefit orphaned children and disadvantaged youth and their communities in Uganda. Volunteer placements are both short-term (2 weeks - 5 months) and long-term (6-12 months), but can be longer or shorter, depending on a volunteer’s time frame, and are organized throughout the year.

World Peace Experiment
http://onlyloveprevails.org
| Mission & Activitiies: | We are seeking 80,000 people who are willing to be part of an experiment to see if we can shift the world's perception of "good and evil" to a perception of love. It doesn't cost any money and takes only seconds a day. We believe we are all one mind and that if enough people (critical mass) could shift their own personal perception—change their minds—about the existence of evil, then the whole planet could shift into a perception of love. The experiment is similar to that described as the "hundreth monkey" effect. We also believe that world peace begins with each individual achieving a state of peace within themselves. We can begin to do that for ourselves by becoming aware of the "negative" influences in our lives and choosing consciously to eliminate or shift those influences. |
| Main Focus Area: | Theme 1 – Unity |
| Other Focus Area(s): | Theme 11 – The International Day of Peace |
| Actions to Take: | Sign up to participate in the World Peace Experiment and help us reach our goal of 80,000 people willing to co-create, through a shift in consciousness, a sustainable, harmonious world of peace where Only Love Prevails. |
| Comments: | Many of you have written us asking how we came up with the figure of 80,000 people. Here is our explanation: Physicists tell us that according to the laws of wave mechanics, the intensity of any kind of waves that are in phase with each other is the square of the sum of the waves. In other words, two waves added together are four times as intense as one wave, ten waves are one hundred times as intense, etc. Since thought is energy, and all energy occurs as waves we believe that 80,000 people all thinking the same thing together are as powerful, in terms of creating the reality that we all share, as the random chaotic thought of the 6.4 billion people (80,000 times 80,000) that will soon inhabit the planet. Therefore, 80,000 people who believe that only love prevails, will create a laser of intent that will change the planetary reality. |
