The Project

Many people have inspired me to begin this journey. I have spent my life working with children. I can not imagine standing idly by while children are suffering. And while I can't single handedly end the genocide in Darfur, I can do my part to help it's refugees. And maybe in the process I can educate enough people about this genocide that we can all do something to help bring peace to the people who need it.

300,000 people have been killed in Darfur and 250,000 have escaped. Many refugees end up at refugee camps in Chad. And while these people have little access to food, shelter, water or medicine, they all ask for one thing; education.

I want to build them a school.

I may be nobody, and you may be nobody. But together we can all be somebody. Somebody who can make a real and lasting difference.

My goal is to raise $25,000 (which will be matched by Jewish World Watch). With that $50,000 a school can be built at a refugee camp in Chad.

How am I going to do it? I'm going to get 250 people to give me (or raise) $100.

So, who is with me?

I'm nobody, who are you? Are you nobody too?
