Sudan is experiencing the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.

In February, two more areas of Sudan reached famine-level food insecurity leaving over 33 million people in need of humanitarian aid in 2026.

Our teams have supported over 500,000 Sudanese people access clean water, fresh food, health programmes and other essential services.

Your donation now can help us get more families in Sudan the urgent humanitarian assistance they need.

Most supporters give an average of £50.36.

Over 3.2 million children under five are at risk of extreme hunger in Sudan.

Donating £37 now could provide malnutrition treatment for a Sudanese child, securing their future.

Nourishing food for £84

Following foreign aid cuts, over 29 million people are going hungry in Sudan.

Donating £84 now could deliver food to 100 women and children living through hunger.

Across Sudan:

  • 29 million people are facing extreme hunger.
  • 14 million people have lost their homes

Homes, hospitals, and food markets have been destroyed. And with aid severely blocked, Sudanese families are without essential supplies – and food insecurity is increasing at a dangerous rate.

You can help people affected by conflict in Sudan access emergency aid like food, water and hygiene support.

Out of every £1 you donate, we spend 94p on charitable activities and 6p on support costs.

How to help Sudan

You can help Sudanese families get urgent emergency aid by donating to our Sudan Appeal now.

Your donation will help us continue our work with local partners supporting vulnerable communities  in five areas of Sudan and Sudanese refugees in neighbouring countries like South Sudan and Chad.

Our programmes provide immediate humanitarian aid and strengthen resilience in Sudanese communities.

Despite aid being severely blocked, our teams are still working in Sudan running life-saving services including:

  • emergency food and shelter
  • water, sanitation and hygiene
  • mental health support
  • healthcare and maternal health
  • gender protection for women and girls at risk of gender-based violence
  • food security and livelihood programmes

With the impact of aid cuts still uncertain, it’s essential we secure enough donations to keep running our lifesaving programmes in Sudan. Please donate to help families and children in Sudan.

The humanitarian crisis in Sudan

Conflict has been escalating in Sudan since April 2023.

And now there are over 9.6 million displaced people. 21 million people don't have enough food to eat. Famine has been declared in two regions in Sudan and more regions are at risk.

Armed violence and economic crisis have gutted Sudan’s services, with less than 20% of healthcare facilities left. And emergency aid is severely restricted.

Samy Guessabi, Country Director of Action Against Hunger, Sudan, said:

“El Fasher and Kadugli in Sudan are under siege, with no access to food, water or medical care. Families are eating boiled leaves.”

Your support can help us reach more families living through the crisis with humanitarian aid including food, water and medical care.
