64 Days for Darfur! 64 Members and Growing! Be the change!

What is he talking about 64 days towards Darfur?

Well if you are joining in on the Give 'Em 8 campaign that means that if our 64 members give 8 hours each that would be 64 working days of effort towards Darfur!  That is awesome!

What's more awesome is that I know some members are giving way MORE than 8 hours!

And that's kind of the idea, once you have given 8 towards Darfur it is hard not to give more for the cause.  Once you learn more about these people and see what they are up against, you realize we have to give as much as we can - their LIVES depend on it!

So as we grow -
100 people = 100 days
500 people = 500 days
1000 people = 1000 days
10,000 people = 10,000 working days = over 27 years of combined effort towards Darfur and beyond!

Become part of the change - Join Learn, Share, Act for Darfur and Beyond Today!

as John Lennon would say - Imagine


And it all starts by each and every person we talk to giving 8 hours towards Darfur
8 hours. 
1 Day this year. 
1 Day of your life to help save so many lives.

Imagine.


Just think about some of the ways you have wasted 8 hours.  Can you think of a few hours you have wasted?  How easy would it be to turn that time towards working on a great cause - saving lives.

Imagine.


Imagine what a difference we can make and that we have a great resource here to start.
Zaadz mission states it clear - Let's Change the World!

Imagine.

MIke,

If this blog post wont get others to act against the genocide, i dont know what will.
good job, and may our determined efforts make that change.

the pressure is on our politcians to take their rhetoric into action. did you hear if the HR180 bill passed yesterday? i will check—it was a massachusetts congressional bill that calls for divestment…more on this on your lovely pod on darfur. keep that link a coming!

in solidarity,

mary

That is awesome that HR 180 passed!  I added a map showing the states that have divested to date and a link to the Sudan Divestment site on the Darfur Pod.
