World Vision in Sudan

As you may be aware Sudanese authorities have expelled 13 aid groups from Darfur. I was excited this morning to find that "World Vision" have not been expelled. This is an awesome opportunity to make a real difference. I'm going to be donating today, why don't you too?
In 2008 World Vision’s relief efforts included:
Monthly food rations to more than 300,000 displaced persons in Darfur
Health and nutrition services provided to 150,000 people in Darfur
Hygiene education to more than 100,000 people in Darfur
Water sources provided for approximately 19,000 people in Blue Nile State
Psychosocial support for more than 10,000 children in Darfur
Support for 45,000 people in Khartoum State in the areas of agriculture, livelihoods, school feeding, and water and sanitation.
Support for 65,000 people in Blue Nile State in the areas of agriculture and livelihoods support, health and nutrition, water and sanitation, rehabilitation and recovery.
