One Peace, One Love made an impact on the campus of North Central. Although there was a small turn out for each event, it was powerful to see the reactions of those that came to the events not knowing what they were getting themselves into. By involving a local band from Chicago (The Earth Program), IJM raised $120 against human slavery. :0) The following morning, students came through to make their fourth and final button (Liberate), and showed their loyalty to ending slavery. My favorite guest of that Saturday was the man who saw our informational booths, was interested, and stopped by. He literally pulled his car over to learn about modern day slavery, and did not turn around and leave! He stayed and looked/listened to all the information at each booth. It was touching, and an overall amazing experience for each event.
