Want to get involved? There are tons of ways to contribute!

 

Did you know more than 360 children die every day in Sudan due to preventable issues like hunger and disease? World Vision is an organization that takes donations online to help Sudanese children. It’s special in the fact that you can specify exactly where you want your money to go. There are over 15 options to choose from, ranging from animals to education, and any donation amount is appreciated.

Dosomething.org suggests several options people can take part in to fight genocide; such as hosting a film screening or joining an advocacy group. The website also gives a list of facts and important terms to know when discussing genocide.
