The Darfur Wall project is taking an interesting approach at visualizing the devastating data around the mass genocide in Darfur. The site shows 400,000 numbers (from 1 to 400,000), one for each person killed in Darfur– donate one dollar or more to turn a number from dark gray to brilliant light and honor one lost life. At that time of writing this, 10343 numbers have been lit, or 2.59%– What’s probably more remarkable is that this was from only 716 donations, making the average donation $15. 100% of all proceeds go to four different independent Darfur relief organizations– what are you waiting for?
