Highly Original Charity
I just came across The Darfur Wall site and I’m really stunned how effective such a simple idea can be. There are 400,000 numbers, one for each person killed in the Darfur genocide. Each dollar donated lights up a random number. You can zoom in or out to get perspective, or view an animation of the lights coming on over time. Go and look.
Thanks for your kind post!

I’ve spoken to a few people now who really loved the site – you’ve done a great job. It’s a really powerful way to get the message across.
