Chad update

The AADG/OurPledge.org team is extremely relieved that the good folks over at StopGenocideNow.org are safe. If you haven’t been following their story, here’s the short of it: After Gabriel Stauring and team finished up their latest round of reporting from the Darfuri refugee camps in Chad, they got stuck in Chad’s capital Ndjamena, caught directly in the middle of an onslaught by rebel forces that were (and still are) trying to take over the Chadian government.

It’s important to remember that these rebel forces have been supported by the Sudanese government. The violence is another indication of Khartoum’s complete devaluation of innocent human life–while Gabriel and team were able to get out of Ndjamena, thousands of innocent Chadian men, women, and children are stuck or else have been forced to flee their homes.
