Ante Up For Africa

Visit the official website

Over the last four years, fighting in the Darfur region of western Sudan has left 200,000 dead and driven another 2.5 million people from their homes. Now, having survived violence, atrocities and abductions, they are living in squalor in refugee camps in Chad and Sudan.

The situation is definitely grim but there is some good news: the world is finally starting to pay attention, in no small part due to concerned citizens who are ratcheting up the heat on political leaders and demanding an end to the violence.

Numerous magazines and newspapers have written about the impact that the citizens’ movement has had on influencing important players to take the appropriate action. A concerned population is refusing to allow Darfur to fall off the radar of the public’s consciousness.

By merging our desire to contribute to a resolution of this crisis and our passion for poker we are raising money and public awareness for this important cause.
