11.05.2010… exactly 1 month till the start of the World Cup. Election? What election? From here on in it is definitely World Cup mania!
Forget about winners and losers, there’s only one outcome I want from this year’s World Cup, and that’s Education for All.
That’s why I’m supporting 1GOAL and I want you to do the same. This is an opportunity we can’t miss. The world is coming together to watch the World Cup; so enjoy the games but support 1GOAL!
If that’s not enough you can wear your shirt to work as a show of solidarity for the campaign (and your favourite team), you can get your friends and family to sign up too and send your forms back to us.
If you want to know more about the issues download our latest report: The Future is Now or you can read about what’s happening around the globe in support of 1GOAL – there’s loads going on!
