Hi John,
I just spent two weeks in Sudan, where the cost of conflict is impossible to ignore. Uprooted families. Crushing poverty. Starving kids. These stories are painful and deserve to be told.
Khartoum’s largest hospital is utterly destroyed, inhibiting access to health care in a city ravaged by fighting. Meanwhile, families are fleeing Darfur in droves. Every child who escaped El Fasher before the city fell is now acutely malnourished and needs months of medical treatment – while the latest data shows catastrophic, famine-level malnutrition in two more areas of Sudan.
Take it from someone who witnessed the hardship firsthand: Sudan’s children cannot wait. Will you join my urgent call for a humanitarian ceasefire? |
John, This ongoing conflict has left families and communities in anguish.
One day, I met a mother who fled El Fasher with her five children. They trekked 800 miles to safety – 500 of them on foot. One child didn’t survive the brutal journey.
Another woman described how the conflict drove dozens of children in her community to beg for food on the streets. Today, she runs a Save the Children-supported program that feeds hundreds of families each day.
Destruction to critical infrastructure means entire neighborhoods don't have access to basic necessities. I watched a repaired water point bring clean, running water back to schools, health facilities and 8,000 displaced families – allowing them to finally return home.
John , the world can't stay silent as this suffering unfolds. Please, raise your voice and keep your eyes on Sudan. For the children, |
