Back Story: Genocide No More-Save Darfur was formed three years ago in Redding to increase awareness about the genocide in Darfur and to raise funds for humanitarian relief. The Enterprise High School STAND Club is a group of students who have sponsored benefits and informational meetings about the crisis.

The “Sound of Music” has been enjoyed by millions for years. Its message of hope is especially appropriate for this event. Money raised will be used to help provide a library/classroom in Camp Kounoungo and provide hope for the thousands of children in the camp. It will also be used to alleviate hunger and suffering in Shasta County through the efforts of People of Progress.
