Waxploitation established the Causes album series to benefit the work of
Doctors Without Borders,
Human Rights Watch and
Oxfam America. Principally their efforts in Darfur.
Although estimates of the number of people killed by the conflict in Darfur vary widely from 200,000 to 400,000, what is certain is that more than
2 million people have fled their homes because of the fighting, and
4 million are in dire need of humanitarian assistance. It is widely accepted that this one of the worst crises in the world today.
