The war and genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan began six and a half years ago. Since that time, nearly 400,000 people in Darfur have been killed, and three million have been forced to flee their homes. These millions now live in massive refugee camps spread across Chad and Darfur, dependent on outside aid for survival.
At the Save Darfur Coalition website, you can sign a petition to President Obama asking him to make peace in Darfur a top priority when he addresses the United Nations next week.
The petition is here:
