HELP CHILDREN IN CRISIS

The eruption of fighting in Sudan comes while the country is facing its worst ever humanitarian crisis with conflict, natural disasters, disease outbreaks and economic degradation resulting in 15.8 million people – about a third of the population and more than half of them children - needing humanitarian support. 

Children and their families are in desperate need. Over half a million children are already suffering from severe acute malnutrition. Schools across the country have been affected by the insecurity. As a result, millions of children have no access to education and families trapped in areas of fighting have gone days without water, food and electricity. Over 1 million people have been uprooted from their homes – a quarter have fled to neighbouring countries.

Donate to our Child Emergency Fund to help us respond quickly to support children living in crisis  in countries like Sudan and around the world. 

Save the Children has worked in Sudan since 1983 to provide humanitarian relief to children and their families.  Now we’re setting up psychosocial support services for children and families crossing the border into Egypt. In South Sudan, we are scaling up our support in existing displacement camps. We also continue to support 112 primary health care facilities and 176 schools. 

The safety and wellbeing of everyone in Sudan, especially vulnerable children is our priority.  Please join us and donate to protect children in Sudan and across the world.

WHY DONATE TO THE CHILD EMERGENCY FUND?

Our Child Emergency Fund is a central pot of funding for emergencies. It gives us the flexibility to respond quickly and wherever the need is greatest.

With every year that goes by, crises become more frequent, last longer and affect more people. There are now twice as many natural disasters as there were 20 years ago. 

The needs are huge, but so is our determination to reach every last child in crisis. We have the experience to limit the effects of disasters on children's lives – and our Emergency Fund is the key to unlocking this expertise.

Thanks to your support, we've helped millions of children in their darkest hour. Watch the video to see how your donation can save the lives of children in crisis.

Please give to our Child Emergency Fund today. Your donation will allow our response teams to protect children better, faster and for longer.
