The Darfur Wall

Posted on July 26th, 2007 by Aryeh

DArfur wallAs Jewish boys become men and Jewish girls become women around our Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, we make Bar and Bat Mitzvah projects, which is any project that will make the world a better place. For my Bar Mitzvah Project, I am trying to help the innocent victims of genocide in Darfur. Over 400,000 people have died, over 1,600 villages have been destroyed, and 2.5 million people are at risk to me murdered or driven from their homes, like millions of others. The super-extremist Janjaweed militia is showing no sign of stopping their destructing, and the Sudan government is offing only hollow aid. The rape and the murder continue, and we have a responsibility to help.

Please donate immediately to The Darfur Wall, an orginization that funnels 100% of it’s donations to the four most useful organizations to the Darfur genocide victims: Doctors Without Borders, Save the Children, Save Darfur, and the Sudan Aid Fund. When you donate, the online memorial wall will light a number, with each number counting the number of victims, as a tribute to your donation. Please donate and post in a comment the amount of money that you donated so that I can match it with the money that I receive as Bar Mitzvah gifts. Please spread the word and feel free to post this where ever you can to spread the word, just give me the link.

    That’s very Jewish of you, buying something to replace your brain instead of buying medical help for people in need.

    No one is going to actually try to help these poor people? If people start donating, then I’ll double the amount donated and match that.
