I Lit 1989

I lit 1989Darfur, Sudan. As far as most Americans are concerned, it doesn’t exist. Admit it, most of us don’t really know what’s out there besides what’s on the news and what’s in the papers. There are a few of us who do travel and see things first hand though.

The Darfur Foundation, which main project is The Darfur Wall, has a neat website. It’s not just neat, but a great idea for raising money.

They pay for everything out of their pocket, that way any donations can go to other organizations that they support. It is a fairly new organization, so I wasn’t quite too sure whether to trust it or not. It does have the proper filing, and it is just $1, so I thought I’d give it a go.

Donate to the Darfur WallBy donating $1, you get to either pick a number or get a number randomly chosen for you. There are 400,000 numbers. Each representing how many innocent people have died in Darfur, Sudan. I think it’s for a good cause, and donating one dollar can’t hurt you can it?

I'm not finished with the design of my blog quite yet, please hold on while I fix the comments, archives, and search templates.
