A response to the vlogbrothers video Lighting a candle for Rwanda:

Watch their video and then do this:
Say your name, age, country, and light a candle of hope for Rwanda and wait for 5 to ten seconds. Upload your videos of less than 30 seconds using http://www.yousendit.com and send them to videos@thehpalliance.org

Also upload them to YouTube and post them as video responses to the vlogbrothers.
