Save Darfur

Dec 22, 2006 18:58

Did you know that more than 2.5 million people have been driven from their homes in Darfur, Sudan? Each day, they face threats that are hard for us to even imagine, including rape, disease, and starvation.

These people need our help to put an end to the genocide and they need it NOW.

Please join me in taking a stand to end the violence before more lives are lost needlessly.

Visit the link below to sign the Save Darfur Coalition's petition urging President Bush and the UN Secretary-General to take immediate steps to stop the killing:

Save Darfur

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of millions of people in the region who desperately need help. The Save Darfur Coalition is urging the international community to prevent further killings, displacement, and rape by:

Deploying the UN peacekeeping force that has already been authorized;
Strengthening the understaffed African Union force that is already in Darfur;
Establishing a no-fly zone;
Increasing humanitarian aid; and
Ensuring access for delivery of food, medication and other essential supplies.

Please do not stand by while the violence continues - you CAN make a difference.

Thanks for your help.
