Call-To-Action Campaigns
Somalia & NY GiantS
OmniPeace Foundation and The New York Giants sent two convoys into Southern Somalia with the Global Enrichment Foundation. Their mission was a success! Thousands of people lined up to receive enough food and supplies to walk for two weeks to a refugee camp on the border of Kenya and Somalia, where they would be safe. More than 10,000 families who were severely affected by the famine were fed and over 300 men, women, and, children were clothed with OmniPeace t-shirts.
Congo & Conflict Minerals
To get the attention of every technology company in the world purchasing conflict minerals (tin, tungsten, tantalum and gold) from Congo, OmniPeace Foundation produced this viral video (click link below). It was a ‘call-to-action’ initiative to urge the companies to stop funding the deadliest conflict in the world since World War II. Over six million people were killed and hundreds of thousands of women and children were brutally raped. Through this campaign, OmniPeace brought worldwide attention to this human rights atrocity to stop technology companies’ from profiting off the blood of women and girls in Congo.
Shortly thereafter, Apple and Intel announced they would soon boast “conflict-free” gadgets and laptops.
Stamp Out Violence
OmniPeace Foundation launched their “Stamp Out Violence Against Women and Girls of the Congo" T-shirt campaign with Jennifer Aniston, Sheryl Crow, Courteney Cox and Founder, Mary Fanaro. Proceeds from the sale of the T-shirt were donated to UNICEF and Eve Ensler’s (V-Day Foundation) City of Joy, a healing and rape treatment center for women and children victims in Congo.
Eve Ensler (Founder V-Day Foundation), Dr. Mukwege (winner United Nations Human Rights Award and Nobel Prize Winner 2018) and actress Rosario Dawson were OmniPeace Ambassadors for the campaign.
OmniPeace Rings the Bell
OmniPeace rang the opening bell at NASDAQ in celebration of their seventh school. The ‘Just for One Day’ campaign was supported by The ONE Group, a global hospitality company that develops and operates upscale, high-energy restaurants and lounges.
