Children's drawings from Darfur were deemed suitable as evidence in the International Criminal Court's case against Sudanese government officials. What more to say?Please go here for more information about the drawings (one exhibit just closed at Harvard). UK-based Waging Peace has been instrumental in the collection of Darfuri children's artwork. Above is no. 16 of 20 drawings on the site (artist's names are undisclosed for obvious reasons). All are accomplished, as well as informative, & we can only hope that they will be given the opportunity to develop their skills.
There are many places to donate, but GG must confess a partiality to Darfur Peace & Development Organization Schools of Peace. (DPDO also has many other worthy & successful programs, see here.) Whatever, wherever you decide to send your donations, know that they are so appreciated & never taken for granted.
