=====================================================

The Facts:

v Over 4 million Congolese have died as a result of conflict in the Congo since 1998.

v The source of the conflict in the Congo is the scramble for its natural resources

v The Congo has the largest untapped mineral reserves in the world

v The Congo has an estimated $24 trillion worth of mineral resources, equivalent to the combined Gross Domestic Product of Europe and the United States

The Call:

v INVITE a Congolese representative to speak to your group or organization

v STAY informed and connected via the Friends of the Congo website (www.friendsofthecongo.org)

v SPREAD the word about the Congo crisis and the efforts of Congolese to freely choose their leaders and control and use their resources for the benefit of the people
