T-Shirt Fundraiser
 
Ms. Dragone's eighth grade students at Schaghticoke Middle School in New Milford, CT, have joined our School
in Sudan effort.  They have designed and are selling the T-Shirt described below and all proceeds from the sales
benefit our School. 
 
(Please note: Over $2000 has been raised since spring 2008 from the sales of these T-Shirts!  Thank you!!
 
As of November 2008, the T-Shirt is no longer available. 
 
The class is now focused on other fundraisers to support our School in Sudan effort.  You can contact Ms. Dragone to find out the details.)

About Darfur – Darfur is a region in Sudan that is about the size of Texas. It is made up of settled peasants who identify as African and nomadic herders who identify as Arab. In 2003, ethnic battles erupted between the groups resulting in over 200,000 dead and over 2.5 million people displaced by violence. Many people
have lost family members, homes, and their physical and emotional security. Unfortunately, the children of Darfur are suffering as they face military violence, inadequate or nonexistent healthcare, and little hope for an education.
