CARE and Harvard's Dinner for Darfur
This event was a dinner benefiting refugees from Darfur. One hundred percent of ticket sales went to purchasing simple, environmentally friendly solar cookers for the Darfurian refugees in the Iridimi and Touloum camps in Chad. Solar cookers allow refugees to cook food provided by relief agencies without leaving the camps to search for scarce firewood, keeping refugees safe from the violence outside the camps. Kirkland is a sponsor of this event.
