Please mark your calendars for the second Call to Action for Darfur:
National Student Leadership Conference in Washington D.C. this summer.
August 11-14, 2005
The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and the STAND Coalition will host a National Conference this summer to bring together student leaders.
Students have a vital role to play in ending the genocide in Darfur. The conference will focus on integrating new communities, introducing new outreach initiatives, and formulating a national agenda for the upcoming school year.
The Conference will strengthen the student coalition and focus on reaching out past the college community. It will bring together the Darfur activist community and incorporate high school leaders as well as college activists.
If you are unable to attend, please forward this to other members of your school or organization who might be able to attend. By bringing the student movement back together, this conference will be crucial in shaping the future of the national student coalition, and we seek to have representatives from schools nationwide.
More information and registration coming soon...save the date!

See you in August!
