Dear friends,

A genocidal army has raped and killed thousands of people in Sudan .

There's evidence of mass graves, child soldiers, and ethnic cleansing.Now Darfur's capital city is completely surrounded . Almost two million people have no escape, communications have been cut, and food is running out. Experts call it a "killbox" situation.
The whole country is in a near-total communications blackout . Without internet access, social media, or on-the-ground reporting, Sudan doesn't make the big headline news, and governments are doing almost nothing.
But Avaaz members are helping to change that .

Through our funding for satellite data and geospatial analysis, researchers have been able to 'prove' mass atrocities, and map out which communities are in danger.The project has generated massive media coverage, and paved the way for sanctions… but we have to do more .

Everything Avaaz does is 100% funded by people reading this email. Your donation will help shine a global spotlight on Sudan, and power Avaaz campaigns for human rights around the world.Sudan is sliding into the jaws of genocide -- but together we can raise the alarm, and help to force global action before it's too late . Donate what you can now:

The scale of Sudan's crisis is staggering -- but by pooling our donations, we can have an out-sized impact , pressuring world leaders to stop the conflict and release life-saving aid.

This strategy has worked before. In 2004, a massive public awareness campaign pushed an unfolding genocide in Darfur to the top of the world's agenda, saving countless lives. But 300,000 people were still killed, and we cannot let it happen again.If we raise enough we could :
Fund "eye in the sky" satellite monitoring to track troops in real time and use the data to protect civilians by alerting media and governments; Power a multi-month media operation to expose the foreign actors fuelling these atrocities and providing weapons;

Pile pressure on governments everywhere with advocacy tours in key capitals, while galvanising urgent action at the UN, from the Security Council to humanitarian teams;

Build an emergency response fund to power urgent campaigns to protect people caught up in war and conflict. This is our chance to have a direct impact in the face of horror -- funding proven action that could help prevent another genocide and save lives . Your donation will make a massive difference:

Avaaz has helped break the silence around civilian slaughters in Syria, Yemen, and Ukraine. Now we must do it for Sudan, so we can truly say: never again.

With endless hope and determination,
Camille, Bert, Kaitlin, Will, John, Marigona, Shayna, Mike and the whole team at Avaaz
