South Sudan is once again going to experience a devastating flood. Current forecasts from humanitarian and meteorological agencies indicate that severe floods are expected to affect over 4.4 million people between October and December 2025. These floods threaten to submerge large parts of the country, destroying homes, crops, and livelihoods that are already fragile due to years of conflict and climate shocks.
In particular, Aweiil South and surrounding communities in Northern Bahr el Ghazal are among the most at risk. Rising waters from the Lol River and seasonal rainfall are expected to cut off villages, damage farmlands, and displace thousands of families who depend entirely on subsistence farming and livestock.
The Mawoudit Foundation teams on the ground are witnessing early signs of flooding and rising community distress. Local families are already moving livestock and belongings to higher grounds, but most lack safe shelter or emergency supplies.
We urgently appeal to the GlobalGiving community, individual donors, and partners worldwide to stand with the people of South Sudan in this critical moment. Your contribution no matter the size can save lives and restore hope for families facing the worst flood in years.
