5th Grade CARES: El-Fadel Talks about Dafur

Join us Wednesday, April 1 at 5 pm in the Jessie Auditorium!

Come one come all to hear El-Fadel speak on the conditions in Dafur and meet many in our own community from Dafur, parents and children alike, for this community event this Wednesday as part of Breakwater’s 5th grade CARES project. This is a tremendous opportunity to connect our community to a wonderful organization in our own back yard. Food and refreshments will be provided during the intermission.

Portland resident El-Fadel was only 12 years old when his village in Darfur was attacked by the Janjaweed militia. His family scattered and was separated as they fled the attack, and El-Fadel was left alone to find shelter and to survive.

Hear El-Fadel's story of the Darfur genocide. Learn what we can do to help end the violence in Darfur. With more than 400,000 civilians killed and over 2.5 million displaced, time is running out.

Please help save Darfur:
