Sudan is experiencing a catastrophic civil war, which has resulted in a declared famine and cholera epidemic as violent clashes between paramilitary and government forces threaten the lives of millions of people across the country. Since April 2023, thousands of Sudanese have been killed, and millions more injured and displaced in the fighting. Your donation to the Sudan Emergency Fund will provide emergency relief, food, water, medicine, and other essential supplies to impacted communities.
Sudan was already amid its worst humanitarian crisis since 2011 and the current war, famine, and cholera epidemic is further upending millions of lives. Fighting between armed groups and forces is blocking safe access to basic necessities, threatening lives, and displacing families nationwide. Millions are internally displaced with hundreds of thousands fleeing to Chad, South Sudan, and Ethiopia. Urgent support is vital for communities' survival and recovery in Sudan and surrounding countries.
A humanitarian ceasefire is imperative. Respect for international humanitarian law, including access to aid and safe passage for civilians, is vital to combat famine, protect lives, and meet urgent needs. Donations to this fund will support emergency relief and mutual aid for Sudanese communities, addressing immediate needs like food, water, shelter, and healthcare through vetted local partners. Over time, the fund will shift focus to long-term recovery efforts led by local organizations.

When a disaster strikes, recovery efforts led by people who live and work in affected communities are often overlooked and underfunded. GlobalGiving is changing this reality. Since 2004, we've been shifting decision-making power to crises-affected communities through trust-based grantmaking and support.
We make it easy, quick, and safe to support people on the ground who understand needs in their communities better than anyone else.
They were there long before the news cameras arrived, and they’ll be there long after the cameras leave. They know how to make their communities more resilient to future disasters, and they’re already hard at work. GlobalGiving puts donations and grants directly into their hands. Because the status quo—which gives the vast majority of funding to a few large organizations—doesn’t make sense.
