    Colorado Springs will host the Dream for Darfur, a symbolic Torch Relay that will be visiting more than 28 US cities in solidarity with many international countries associated with mass slaughter and genocide around the globe. Around the world activists will join their hands clasped firmly together to make one united statement: "The real goal here is to call on China to use their special relationship with Sudan to end the genocide in Sudan. So far we have four million people who live in refugee camps, over 200 thousand people have died and China has a real opportunity to play a critical role in ending the genocide in Darfur," said Ben Prochazka with the Save Darfur Coalition. Led by Cheyenne Mountain High School students, STAND Colorado College students, and volunteers from The Springs Coalition to Save Darfur and The Save Darfur Coalition, our goal is to secure protection for civilians in Darfur, to pressure China to stop selling weapons to the Sudanese government and secure lasting peace in the region.
