Part three of Jim Sciutto's reporting from Sudan saw him back in Darfur. Monday (subscription required) he covered the civil war itself; Wednesday he was in Khartoum to explore the Sudan-China axis; now Sciutto (subscription required) finds himself among Darfur's refugees. "The camps are no longer temporary havens but cities dependent on aid." Most food is donated by the government of the United States but healthcare is run by charities. He visited a Safe Motherhood Center clinic run by Relief International where he was told lives are saved at the rate of $5 per head. This clinic is sustained by the efforts of a Baltimore woman named Patricia Crawford. She read in a newspaper that the clinic was running out of money so she raised $10,000. "Doctors say the money has already saved hundreds of lives."
