	ManUp: Brooklyn, New York The Man Up Campaign is individuals and organizations committed to stopping violence against women and girls. Man Up Campaign taps into the core elements of grassroots organizing: Education, Capacity Building and Community, in order to advance long-term, sustainable, impactful programs led by youth around the world. Man Up Campaign meets youth where they are and utilizes relevant points of engagement in order to create blueprints for change to stop violence against women.
	P5Y: Bolder, Colorado Peace in 5 Years (P:5Y) is a global collaboration to create world peace in five years. Starting with our launch on Februay 14, 2009 until the deadline of February 14, 2014, P:5Y collaborators will work in the areas of media, marketing, global project management software, grassroots organizing, and a Global Peace Treaty to effectively and measurably put an end to politically organized violence. The world has the knowledge, resources, and tools–including global communications networks–to create peace. If we continue to tolerate war as a legitimate means of conflict resolution, we risk continued misery, global problems, and even total destruction of our species (and many others).
	Girl Child Network: Kenya, Africa The Girl Child Network is an umbrella organization that brings together more than three hundred International and National Non-Governmental Organizations, International Development Partners, Community Based Organizations and Faith Based Organizations, youth and women groups and individual members interested in the welfare of the girl child in Kenya. GCN envisions a society that upholds and respects the rights of the girl child as Human Rights.
	Pachamama Alliance: San Francisco, California The destruction of the world’s rainforests is driven by a complex web of social and economic forces, many of these a logical result of modern society’s worldview — a view that, although rich in technological insight, is often ignorant of the value of nature’s apparently free and limitless services. It is a view guided by maximum short-term financial gain while disregarding the long-term costs of ecological degradation. Pachamama has a commitment both to develop tangible, real-life projects through which rainforests provide more direct economic benefit standing than cut as well as to broaden the general economic view so that the value of standing rainforests and the costs associated with their destruction are measured and counted. Our work takes place in two distinct program areas: social and economic development projects in the South and education and awareness building in the North.
	Four Years. Go. We are confronted with a time of great peril as a human species. The overwhelming majority of peer reviewed scientific scenarios warn that we are rapidly approaching perilous tipping points, after which life as we have known it will change irreversibly. The extent of mounting crises is daunting—profound climate disruption, wide and deep poverty, global water shortages, loss of topsoil, depletion of fisheries, erosion of democracy, unsustainable population growth, mass extinction of plant and animal species, economic breakdown. And these crises are in fact completely inter-related. More and more people are recognizing the urgency of the situation but seem unable to muster the vision and commitment needed to cause a change in course. Unless we break free of this gridlock, we will, tragically, end up where we are headed. Four Years. Go. is a rallying call asking us all to Wake Up to the enormous harm we are doing to Earth and ourselves. There’s still time to act, but no time to waste.
