Impact: Sudan

Sudan is starving. Mothers have nothing left to feed their hungry children. We need your help to fill empty bowls and deliver essential supplies. Don’t wait.


More than half of the population is facing acute hunger. Malnutrition rates among children are increasing. Babies—some just one day old—are fighting to survive.

People across Sudan are dying from a lack of food, clean water, shelter, and medical assistance. Many have fled to neighbouring countries in search of safety.

The people of Sudan continue to endure immense hardship, as hunger and malnutrition are rampant and famine has been confirmed in at least 10 locations.

At the UNHCR-run health center in Chad’s Iridimi settlement, mothers wait in long lines seeking treatment for their malnourished children. Among them is 22-year-old Mowada, a Sudanese refugee who fled shortly after the conflict erupted and has lived in Iridimi for nearly two years. She has already lost one child to malnutrition and now fears history may repeat itself.

Make an even greater impact by becoming a monthly donor.

Monthly gift:

  • $15.80/monthly: Provide fresh food voucher/multipurpose cash transfer
  • $50/monthly: Can support one malnourished child with nutrition supplements
  • $138/monthly: Help a family with the dignity of choice through multipurpose cash assistance—covering essential needs like rent and food for an entire month

Don't give up on them in their crisis. 

A UNHCR truck carrying emergency shelter kits was hit by a drone in North Darfur, Sudan. It was on its way to Tawila, where hundreds of thousands of people have fled for safety.

The driver survived. The supplies did not.

More than 1,300 families are now left without the supplies they urgently needed.

Attacks like this are unacceptable. They put lives at risk and deepen an already devastating crisis. Civilians must be protected. Humanitarian workers must be protected.

3 years of Sudan war:

The crisis is the world’s largest displacement and protection emergency. 12 million people remain displaced, many living in makeshift shelters without safety or hope.

UNHCR remains on the ground, in Sudan and in neighbouring countries, providing emergency shelter, clean water, and protection—but our resources are stretched to the breaking point.

Your support can deliver life-saving aid, protection, and psychosocial care to those affected.

Your gift can help provide:

  • Emergency shelter
  • Essential relief items – sleeping mats and bags,, hygiene kits, emergency fuel, solar lamps
  • Food supplies to fight malnutrition
  • Clean water
  • Life-saving medical attention
  • Protection and specialized care

Please don't wait – your donation can help save lives.

We are determined to do more this year, but we can’t do it without regular, reliable support. Donate to UNHCR today; together we can provide emergency support to help the people of Sudan survive conflict, starvation, and disease.

You can help us reach as many vulnerable refugees and displaced families as possible. Will you help?

Act now. Save lives.

Don’t forget about Sudan.

Thank you for your generosity and support.
