1. We have raised $236 for Grassroots Reconciliation Group(GRG), an organization that works in Northern Uganda to help rehabilitate former child soldiers and to strengthen their communities. You may read more information about STAND and WeCAN's fundraising concert at GRG's official news site.
2. We got a huge response for our Brown Bag Lunch! We donated $347 to buy solar cookers for Darfuri Women in refugee camps in Chad. We donated this money to Jewish World Watch, an organization that initiated the solar cooker project in Darfur. The solar cookers ensure that women don't have to step outside of refugee camps and risk their lives, which they otherwise would, when they would collect firewood.
3. Final Update: We have launched our own blog!
