[TV] Tune in to Anderson Cooper on CNN tonight

Anderson Cooper 360° is broadcasting from Africa all this week, covering two of the continent’s worst humanitarian crises—the well-publicized situation in Darfur, and the less well-known legacy of years of conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN’s chief medical correspondent, is visiting UNICEF programs on the border of Chad and Darfur and in the Democratic Republic of Congo to report on relief efforts for children. To read Dr. Gupta's blog post about his experience in Darfur on Sunday, click here. One of our colleagues is with him, and we're hoping to share some notes from her in the coming days.

Tune in tonight at 10:00 pm EST.

I was watching Anderson’s report last night and was really amazed how he’s taken such a strong position on reporting this issue. It was an excellent piece and very disturbing. I was so moved that I took several Trick or Treat boxes from Pier 1 to give to my nieces and nephews (all 10 of them) to collect and also planned a little visit with them to show them the issues other children face in the world. I think it will be a good way to increase their awareness and let them participate and make a difference.
