Sign a petition, and your name appears at the top of a scroll with a flag denoting your country. I like watching it and seeing how many different countries are represented.

Dear incredible Avaazers,

Just a few hours ago, our community reached 10 million people!

10 million of us. From every nation, every walk of life. Hopeful, and serious about creating the world we all dream of. Campaign after campaign, we're winning. Not just the little fights, the big ones, the ones they said couldn’t be won. And we're just getting started.

There's never been a community like this before – and we’re accelerating – growing by 4 million in the last 9 months! If we stick together, anything's possible. The world may be awash with fear and fatalism, but people power is on the march everywhere, and together we're renewing and sustaining the most powerful force for change ever known...

Hope.

With enormous gratitude for every person in this extraordinary community,
Ricken, Alice, Luis, Ben, Ari, Saravanan, Wissam, Diego, Mia and the entire Avaaz team.

PS – we'll celebrate this milestone soon in a big way – this quick note is just to share the moment right now. And here's some recent features in the media about our amazing journey and what we've accomplished together, in the Guardian, the Economist and the Times.
