What’s involved?

The best way to help is to donate money, but if you can’t donate it, think of ways to raise it! Check out the toolkit for ideas and have a read of an interview of friend of mine that organised a night to “party for the other people.” Here are a number of charities that are supplying the Sudanese refugees with much needed aid and guiding them towards a better future. These are the charities you can donate to and help them to help the Sudanese people. *CARE Australia* Make a single donation online at https://wic005u.serversecure.com/vs106752_secure/online_donation.asp, or by calling 1800 020 046.
