Freewebs, the world’s leading personal publishing platform (www.freewebs.com) today announced a creative new ‘widgetized’ way to help the ONE organization spread the word about extreme poverty and the AIDS emergency in Africa.

Bono – and a dream team of stars, including: Celine Dion, Kelly Clarkson, Gwen Stefani, Earth, Wind &Fire, Il Divo, Keira Knightley, Hugh Grant, Josh Groban with the African Children’s Choir, Jack Black, Helen Mirren, Rascal Flatts, Quincy Jones, Carrie Underwood, Annie Lennox, joined together to talk about ONE and the difference ordinary people can make in the lives of the world’s poorest people.

In anticipation of Bono’s appearance on American Idol, Freewebs featured websites which are dedicated to the cause on its homepage. In addition, Freewebs is making it easy to click and grab the ONE banner to help websites spread the word and raise money and awareness around the web.
