2) Lobby our elected officials to take political action for a sustainable solution to these human rights' emergencies.

3) Raise funds for anti-genocide campaigns

About STAND National:
STAND serves as an umbrella organization for student groups active in promoting awareness and advocating for an end to the current genocide in Darfur, Sudanm, as well as working to create a permanent anti-genocide student movement. It serves as a guide for student groups in high schools and colleges, helping them to develop their grassroots efforts for Darfur and anti-genocide activism, to unify their message and to coordinate efforts. STAND has become a student movement that encompasses over 600 college, university, and high school chapters across the United States and around the world. STAND national seeks to unify, resource and empower all of these chapters so that, together, these individuals and communities can prevent and stop genocide.
