Read the following story - I think this is great for a kid to be involved in something like this. If you visit his website, you'll see that he has met some pretty influential people in his life and you can tell that he was quite young in some of the photos. My guess is that he has a parent in a position that allows him access to these people. Having said that, I think it's pretty incredible that he would use that priviledge to address something like the safety of women in Darfur. I'm thinking this kid has a very successful future ahead of him!

That is pretty amazing...and the fact that he is only 17 reminds me of how capable any one of us is at effecting positive change.

Wow that's an amazing kid. He really thought outside the box and figured out something that would really benefit the women in Darfur.
