Inspired for Action.

Sammie knows what it means to get your whole school involved. A high school senior from Spokane, WA, she got inspired after learning about Mocha Club at a Sanctus Real concert.

Sammie decided to grab a couple of friends, and get her high school to take action and raise money for Africa.

You can read about their campaign initiatives here.

taking a STAND.

STAND: A Student Anti-Genocide Coalition is a group of students at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, TN that want to make change. Their mission is to promote awareness on the issue of the genocide in Darfur, Sudan and to influence national policy regarding the issue. They partnered with the Mocha Club at the end of the fall semester to run a Make Change campaign. STAND called it "Rock for Darfur" and raised over $1000 for Sudan Regrowth projects! They plan to hold another event, "Walk for Darfur", in the spring.
