Famine has been declared in Sudan. The time to act is NOW. Help vulnerable families access much needed nutrition with a donation today, so they can survive.
In Sudan, famine has been declared as violent military conflict continues to scatter the population, disrupting agriculture and access to food. Over 26 million people face acute hunger. This is more than the population of Australia.
If this famine continues, experts say it could be the worst the world has seen since Ethiopia in the 1980s.
Violent conflict has forced families to flee their homes, with over 9.1 million people displaced inside and outside of Sudan. Exploitation and abuse of women and children have risen, and diseases are on the rise as families have little or no access to healthcare.
Your donation today will help…
provide malnourished children with life-saving healthcare services
provide breastfeeding and pregnant mothers with essential medical supplies so mum and bub have the best chance at life
provide clean water for affected families so they can survive
