Conflict is the number one driver of hunger around the world.

Millions of people in places like Sudan, Gaza and Ukraine have been forced to leave their homes because of war.

When armed conflict arises, hunger almost always follows. Food prices soar. Livelihoods are ruined. And humanitarian aid is blocked.

Families are driven into poverty and struggle to access even the most basic necessities.

Spotlight on Sudan

It’s now been 3 years since the conflict in Sudan began.

More than 21 million people are going hungry and 14 million have fled their homes.

Since the start of the conflict, we have supported nearly two million people in Sudan with food, water and medical care.

Our food kitchens and medical workers have helped to save thousands of lives. But many more need our help.

Your support can help us reach more families living through crises in Sudan and around the world.
