Since conflict erupted across Sudan in 2023, millions have lost their homes, food is scarce, families are desperately struggling to survive. Famine has been announced.
Many children are surviving on one scant meal a day. Many adults have just one meal every two to three days. Worryingly this is often just a carbohydrate called assida, resulting in serious malnourishment.
Children across Darfur are in desperate need of food containing essential protein, minerals and vitamins. Without these vital nutrients children face stunted growth, bone, teeth, hair and even brain damage.
Thanks to your support, you have helped us find a way to deliver and distribute Emergency Seeds - desperately needed for food and planting - and Kids Kitchen Kits.
These Kids Kitchen Kits, containing vital staples like sorghum and millet, as well as lentils, ground nuts, and cooking oil, have been delivered to six Kids for Kids' villages in North Darfur - and we have just given the go ahead for the provision of more.
A total of just under 4,000 families, all with children 5 and under across 15 villages, will be receiving these ermergency Kids Kitchen Kits to help fight off malnutrition - all thanks to you.
Despite the war conditions and the difficult security situation, you are helping us make vital changes and opening the doors of hope to a better future for these families.
We are so grateful for all your support so far but sadly there are many more families suffering from the spectre of famine and diseases.
Please could you donate a little more to our Healthcare projects so we can provide many more urgently needed sacks of Emergency Seed and Kids Kitchen Kits to save the lives of children, mothers and babies in Darfur just as soon as we can.
We cannot thank you enough for your support.
