Will you help?

This week, Sarah again ventured into the the field for the IRC to Jordan and northern Iraq. Her first blog post Time to Heal explains where she's going and what she'll be doing. She also revealed personal and very sad information about herself in relation to this cause.

Today marked a second blog post and a plea: Will you help.


Have a read, it's really interesting what she has to say about ground level, human stories of what's happening there right now.

Sarah has started writing a regular blog for a cause she's involved with and passionate about, the International Rescue Committee. Here are the first two entries, more to come as she's travelling to Thailand this week to visit refugee camps.

Really great new interview with Sarah from about a month ago where she talks openly about her involvement in the IRC and also a few tidbits about The Walking Dead. Check it out!

There's also a written interview on the site.
After she got killed off on “Prison Break,” she said she was on maternity leave, in a bubble. She wasn’t aware of the very public backlash to that news. “I hadn’t slept in four weeks,” she said. “When I became aware of it, I sort of burst into tears. It was such a great honor.”
