In April 2023, civil war erupted between the Sudanese Armed Forces and Rapid Support Forces. The effect on the Sudanese people has been catastrophic, with Sudan now being recognized as the country with the most displaced people in the world. Since the civil war began, over 8.1 million people have been displaced internally, with 3 million others fleeing to neighboring countries.

More than half the population—25.6 million people—are in need of humanitarian aid, and 750,000 are on the verge of starvation.

At Send Relief, we are dedicated to bringing help and hope to the people of Sudan during this time of extreme crisis. We are providing emergency food relief, medical supplies, clean water, transportation, bedding, short-term shelter, educational opportunities, and more to the most vulnerable. Your gifts to Send Relief are vital to these ongoing efforts.

Prayer Points
