The 2008 Mercy Corps Benefit for Darfur was about raising awareness and money for a region of Sudan where the "simple" staples of life are few and far between. Our own Nick Leighton was in attendance, so was comedian Sarah Silverman, and after an errant movement they became very close friends. But the night wasn't all about Nick and Sarah, the real focus was Darfur and the countless caring people (Cary Elwes, Evan Farmer, Mohzan Marno, etc.) who showed up in support.
