Organizations:)

I found some organizations that we can potentially donate to.

1) Darfur Peace and Development: We can donate money to the specific cause of building a school in Darfur (http://www.darfurpeace.org/fundraising/build-a-high-school-in-darfur ), or we can make a general donation (http://www.darfurpeace.org/fundraising/help-the-people-of-darfur). But they also have other causes like building a center for women, and solar cookers. They're listed under the "programs" tab on the left side of the page. 5.1% of profits goes to administration, 2.4% goes to fundraising, and 92.5% goes to the programs.

2) Aid Darfur (http://www.aiddarfur.org/site/c.ntJ2IeMTLuG/b.2257329/k.BF09/Home.htm) I couldn't find any information about their administrative costs and their mission seems general.

Previously, we have donated to Save Darfur.

I hope everyone has a nice holiday break:)
