From Reno to Darfur

Editor's Notes

  1. Hi, my name is Ryan Dhindsa. This is our presentation about Darfur and our efforts in Reno, NV, USA. I am an eighth grade student from Sage Ridge School. I got interested in Darfur last year in seventh grade after seeing a movie about the poverty in Africa and I realized that the people in Africa need our help. I did some research on Africa and learned about the problem in Darfur, Sudan. I started a fundraiser, and some of my peers were interested in helping also, so they joined. I would like to introduce, Spencer Helms and Brandon Jones.
