poorest people?

The ONE Campaign believes

• that the U.S. enacting a comprehensive package
  that includes fair trade, debt cancellation,
  fighting corruption, and directing additional
  resources for basic needs such as education,
  health, clean water, food, shelter, and care for
  orphans, would transform the futures and hopes of
  an entire generation in the poorest countries.
• Therefore, the ONE Campaign supports efforts
  rooted in building strong, widespread support for
  bold, new initiatives to meet the Millennium
  Development Goals.

  (PEPFAR) and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS TB and
  Malaria.
