Dear Peter,
This Saturday, at 6:00 AM EST, President Barack Obama will make history when he speaks before Ghana's parliament—fulfilling a pledge he made to ONE members last year to visit Africa in his first term.
Six o'clock in the morning—or even earlier in other time zones—is pretty early for a Saturday, but we don't want you to miss this historic moment, so we're posting video of the entire speech to our website Saturday afternoon. We hope you'll jump online to watch it and join our policy team for a live chat in which they'll answer your questions and offer analysis of what this speech means for our work fighting poverty and disease.
Click the link below to RSVP to watch the speech and we'll send you a reminder email Saturday afternoon when the video and chat are about to go live on our site:

When I visited Ghana last month, I saw a country that is vibrant, free and proud to work with America to spread prosperity and fight poverty and disease. The people we met and the stories they shared were so powerful, we decided to capture their energy and optimism in a short film called Yes, Africa Can. We hope you'll watch it, share it with your friends between now and Saturday, and learn more about a country that is realizing the potential of Africa.
Watch Yes, Africa Can and RSVP for the speech here:

Thank you for making a difference,
David Lane
President, ONE.org
