Dash for Darfur 5k Run/Walk
The upcoming Dash for Darfur 5K Run/Walk to be held SUN. OCT. 22nd at 8am. This Hillel/Amnesty organized project seeks to raise both awareness among the campus and greater Athens communities about the ongoing genocide in Sudan, as well as funds for Darfur relief.
A multi-faith humanistic, liberal ‘gathering’ will follow the race. A rally of sorts, student leaders, clergy, and JANE KIDD (!!) will offer words and readings calling for an end to genocide in Sudan.
This is a great chance to get a crowd out for a great cause and to support Jane in her appearance before students and community members alike! It’ll be outside the Coliseum by the Olympic monument. The gathering will take place at 9am.
