Sudan Humanitarian Aid fund

Help the MECCA CENTER Girl Scouts send much needed Aid to those in need.

Emergency in Sudan

On Saturday, April 15, violence erupted in Sudan as rival factions fight for control of Sudan's capital. The country has experienced political instability since a 2019 uprising, and is already experiencing one of the world’s biggest humanitarian crises, with almost 16 million people in need of aid. The World Health Organization reports that hundreds have been killed and thousands wounded since clashes began, although the true toll is likely much higher. Heavy fighting continues throughout residential areas and close to hospitals.

 

Islamic Relief has launched an emergency response in Sudan and field office staff on the ground are working to determine what the most urgent needs are.* Donate to IRUSA’s Sudan Humanitarian Aid fund to provide emergency relief for families in need today.

Focus on Sudan

Political instability, socioeconomic crisis, and food insecurity affect nearly a quarter of the population in Sudan. At least 3 million children under the age of five suffer from malnutrition. Violence and intercommunal clashes have also contributed to high numbers of internal and cross-border displacements. In some areas, schools have become temporary shelters, disrupting children’s education. At least 14.3 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance.

Islamic Relief’s Dedication to Sudan

​​Islamic Relief’s first humanitarian response in Sudan was in response to the famine in 1984, where we provided vital food aid to people in need. Since then, our focus has been on long-term development assistance to help pull vulnerable communities out of the cycle of poverty. 

A few of our interventions include:

  • Access to healthcare and education
  • Qurbani+ (Plus), an initiative that seeks to increase the income of families by partnering with them in an Islamic microfinance livelihood program connected to Eid al-Adha
  • Orphan care
  • Humanitarian aid for internally displaced people and returnees, and other vulnerable populations  
  • Emergency aid for flood-affected families including access to clean water and sustainable livelihood support
