Save Darfur

Yesterday on our website I wrote about some atrocities that have been going on the other side of the globe. I wasn't specific about any one particular situation as there are several "hotspots". Today, here, I will address the genocide that has been currently occuring (since 2003) in a little-known region of Sudan, Darfur, where the government is doing little-to-nothing to stop the fighting, starvation and mass murders of innocent people. It seems rape is one of the most commonly used attacks on women and children when they are caught outside of their villages or camps risking their safety to gather food, wood and water to help their families survive. To further demoralize them, their injuries are often unreported because in their society they are often ostracized and banned from their community. Their options are either to risk their safety in order to feed their families, die of starvation and/or disease caused from malnourishment or die at the hands of rebels. Imagine how horrific these peoples lives are just for one minute. We can do something. Please go to the website above and do your part. This is one of many tragedies facing our world today and by being informed here or on our website you can no longer pretend you didn't know and do nothing. I urge you to be part of the solution... donate, educate others, lobby your govermment, whatever you can. Please help.
