Sir Menzies Campbell on Darfur
Please give as generously as you can to the appeal for Darfur. 200,000 people have been killed. It is believed that as many as 2 million have been displaced from their homes. They have been threatened with rape and with violence.
The situation in Darfur is dire, the United Nations has done some things, but not enough. We must press the United Nations to take even stronger action. But, the people of Darfur can’t wait until that action is taken they need your help now.
And that’s why all three of the party leaders in the United Kingdom are joining together to support this appeal.
Please give as much as you possibly can.

Around 4.5 million people have been affected by ongoing conflict in the region and looming rains are bringing the risk of deadly conditions like diarrhoea and malaria, especially for children, pregnant mothers and older people. Aid agencies are appealing for money now so they can act immediately to reach those in need before the rains make it much harder to respond.
