1,300 mile run from students to raise awareness on Darfur

I ran across this video and article and found it extremely interesting. This group of 9 young people got together and completed a 1,300 mile relay run from Wichita , Kansas to Washington D.C, all to raise awareness on the genocide happening in Darfur . They not only raised awareness to people all across the world but they raised over $16,000 dollars to support the end of the genocide happening in Darfur . I encourage all people to research information about the genocide happening in Darfur , it’s extremely captivating. This is a very inspiring story that shows us how far perseverance can take someone.
