Photographer : Face Up To Poverty @flickr

Make Poverty History wants your help in fighting poverty. Add your face to their petition if you believe that the Australian government should be doing more to help halve poverty by 2015. The most powerful people in the world are ordinary people, so use your voice (and face) to make a difference.

The aim of this petition is to prove to political leaders that Australians are united in making poverty history. Their hope is that 70 000 people will make this stand by July 2007.

It’s as simple as sending in a photo of your face! You can MMS it to 0447 333 233 or upload it at www.optus.com.au/faceup.

I want to do this!

This is a GREAT initiative. It not only gives us an opportunity to respond to world poverty, but makes it a whole lot more personal - get onto makepovertyhistory.com.au for more info!
World Vision is also collecting photo 'signitures' on behalf of MPH - check out their website here: worldvision.com.au
