CRC in Action
Become an informed and active advocate.

Holiday Gifts and Fundraisers: Support the Darfur Education Project — Help children at the Oure Cassoni refugee camp learn, heal, and grow. The CRC is inviting individuals, organizations, schools, and religious institutions in New Jersey to support the education of 14,000 Darfurian children who are survivors of the Darfur genocide and who are living in impoverished conditions in this remote refugee camp. By educating these children you provide hope for the refugee families who one day dream of returning to Sudan and rebuilding their communities. To learn more about the project and how you can participate click here.
