Thank you for Standing Up

Global Citizens for Change would like to thank the thousands of individuals who stood up across the country and recognize all those who created Stand Up events in your communities.

This year close to 117 million people in more than 100 countries Stood Up, asking for a world without poverty. Together we broke last year’s World Guiness Record, and surpassed the global goal to have 1% of the world’s population stand up.

Congratulations and thank you for your action!

We would love to share the stories and photos of your Stand Up activity. Please send your pictures and a short blurb about your stand to hharding@cciorg.ca.
