  • I was not aware of this! Thank you. I would like to recommend that people go to the websites of Apple, HP, Nokia,...etc, and ask them, "where do you get your minerals"? With the internet and awareness, we can make change happen!

  • Nicole Richie has grown up so well, she is more than "The Simple Life" she is a great mom and she cares deeply for this project and you can tell.

  • This has become my mission! Somehow let's all connect and show the world we care about inhumanities to other beings on this planet. Let's be the change we want to see in our world. Show a higher duty of care to your neighbour! As part of the cast of the Vagina Monologues, I have been enlightend on this very serious cause. We can all help to educate, spread the word, and bring these war criminals to Justice!! I'm a supporter of the Enough Project!!

  • I'm glad I didn't get a tungsten wedding ring like I originally wanted to! I almost forgot that it was one of the three conflict minerals. All of the diamonds we've purchased are conflict free though!

  • I,as much as anyone wants peace in the Congo and Darfur. And while I believe your intent is good your timing bites!At this moment cell phones are saving lives but possibly birthing a demorcacy.You speak about the power of young people,these young people in Iran have stood uo and said ENOUGH! Cell phones are saving their lives perhaps one day they can join the fight for peace in the Congo!

  • i love her!

  • Thank-you so much, Project Enough. Never quit working for a just peace for all.

    God bless you!
