VIDEO distribution of 17.5 tons of food Uganda

DSC 4828

At the beginning of March 2017, we traveled to Uganda as part of an emergency aid operation and from there on to Sudan, where there is an acute famine. In Uganda, there are more than half a million South Sudanese refugees, and every day more cross the border with the already poor and drought-stricken country. We visited these regions and carried out a total of 4 food distributions in cooperation with World Action Fund. A total of 17.5 tonnes of flour and beans were distributed to approximately 1200 families.
The aim of our mission in South Sudan was to carry out a situation assessment and to form new cooperations for rapid, efficient and long-term assistance to the internally displaced and the hungry. With your help, we can soon realize more life-saving food distributions. Thank you very much for your valuable support! (Donations below)

Donation Campaign – Hunger Relief in Southern Sudan

DSC 5101

Hunger, war, expulsion continue to shape many regions. Especially the young state of South Sudan is an example of the problems of Africa. And relief agencies warn that a humanitarian disaster has already occurred for millions of people.
In South Sudan a devastating famine has broken out. In the civil war country of South Sudan, according to UN figures, about 100,000 people are directly threatened by starvation, and around five million people need food aid. Hundreds of thousands have fled abroad since a new outbreak of the fighting last July. Around two million people have sought shelter in other parts of the country.
The organization fears a further spread of the hunger crisis. About half of South Sudanese – about 5.5 million people – are already suffering from food insecurity and are therefore hovering in the coming months in their lives, the report says. In addition, about three-quarters of all households in the East African country had only deficient food.
The United Nations speaks of a famine only when people have already died of malnutrition.

In cooperation with our local partner organization we want to distribute urgently needed food in a first step. These will be procured in Uganda and transported from there to the affected regions in southern Sudan, where our local partners then carry out the various distributions. To this end, we are launching a new fundraising campaign in favor of the starving people in southern Sudan.
