Celebrities and Cash for Darfur

All you have to do is, bend down, pick up the coins and send the total to the Darfur charity at the end of the year.
After emptying my box of 'picked up coins' from 2006, and sending the money to the Save Darfur Coalition, I instantly began picking up coins for 2007 to refill my box.
I must say, with a keener eye this year than I had last year, the box is filling up really quickly this year and we're only 3 months into 2007. Already I have found one $1 doller bill and lots of coins. Last year I found a $20 bill on the ground in Manhattan.
Everywhere I go I find coins on the floor. Just tonight I was in our local post office in Westwood, New Jersey, and there on the floor was a 10 cent piece.
When I go to the mall, which is about twice a week, I nearly always pick up at least 80 cents in change, many times even more! Not much I know but as I have said before, times that by 7 nights a week and a million people doing it, it soon becomes big money for the people of Darfur.
I read today on a website called www.yuddy.com that Robbie Williams (of Take That fame) held a charity football match last year at Manchester United's ground at Old Trafford, Manchester, England to raise money for the people of Africa.

With so many celebrities becoming active in the fight against the genocide in Africa I find it hard to understand why more ordinary people dont take a bigger interest.
There's Angelina Jolie, Brad pitt, Bono, George Clooney, Robbie Williams and Anderson Cooper (off CNN) all trying to highlight the plight of these people. If they were releasing a new perfume, album or movie we'd all support it, so lets support the charities they support aswell.
