GENOCIDE NO MORE — SAVE DARFUR

The logo I’ve designed for Camp Darfur in Redding is now for sale via Nate’s deviantART store in the form of coffee mugs and mouse pads! The mouse pads go for $9.95, and the mugs go for $10.95 for an 11 oz., and $12.95 for a 15 oz.

Since they are being sold through deviantART, the company takes 50% profit off of all sales, but the rest of the money I will be donating to relief funds for the refugees of the Darfur genocide. Please buy these and support Darfur!

The potluck and prayer vigil had great turnouts, and the brainstorming session with Tim was great. We discussed how we could increase the audience that we are reaching, and how to make more people notice and care about what is going on in Darfur. Some of the ideas were: meeting at a place other than the Methodist Church, bring the subject into the local schools with possibly letter writings, essay contests, etc. Also, selling shirts at the Mall would be a big plus.

The meeting was attended by Marv, Donna Holscher, Gabriel Deckert, William Holley, Ann Lougee, Tim Nonn, Vicki Ono, and me.

Marv, our fearless leader.

Tim Nonn, founder of Dear Sudan.

Hope to see some new people at the meeting on Wednesday!

There will be an old fashioned letter-writing party at the Cropsey’s house on Thursday, 9/14 7:00 PM. 1855 Continental Street, Redding. Anyone is welcome to come, and templates for each letter will be provided. Recipients include President Bush, Senator Feinstein, Senator, Boxer, Congressman Herger, the Government of Sudan, and Kofi Annan, the UN Secretary General. Please come and show your support by writing to our politicians.

Also, we are planning “A Weekend With Tim Nonn,” who is the founder of Dear Sudan. A pot luck dinner will be held at the Redding Methodist Church at 6:00 PM on that Friday, 8/25. Please, bring refreshments, snacks, salads, hot meals, etc. Later that night at 8:00 PM, there will be another Prayer Vigil at the Sundial Bridge. Please come, and encourage your friends, too! The following Sunday, Tim will speak at the morning service (10:00 AM) at the Pilgrim Congregational Church. Look forward to seeing anyone and everyone there!
