Why I'm Part of it: "I believe that we, as one of the most powerful countries in the world, are truly capable of making a difference in the fight against global poverty. We need to realize the impact we have as individuals, and take action rather than just sit back and feel sorry for the people we read about in the headlines. I believe that the Borgen Project is encouraging people to do just that; informing them of the issues and how they can take practical steps towards influencing our legislators."
