WE Sponsorship Opportunities
The Challenge and the Opportunity
Never before in history have so many voices spoken out (via the internet and other media) on behalf of changing humanity’s direction from one of potential self-destruction to one of building a shared sustainable culture of peace, economic justice and environmental stewardship. Connecting and coordinating these voices locally and globally so they can act collectively to create real and lasting change is the challenge of our time, and the mission of the WE Campaign.
The stakes are too high for us to fail!
Even in the wealthiest country, the United States, 1 out of 5 children goes to sleep hungry. In the USA, air pollution kills as many as 91,000 people every year while 7 million people die from air pollution worldwide. Every single minute the world spends about $2 million on weapons and war, while 15 children die every minute of hunger and preventable disease.
