Sudan Emergency Appeal

Single donation

For every £1 you donate, 90p will go towards supporting Concern’s work in Sudan, 10p will be allocated for general support and running costs.

Millions of people have fled their homes due to conflict in Sudan. After two years of fighting, 8.8 million people are internally displaced, and 3.2 million people have sought refuge in neighbouring countries, like South Sudan and Chad.. These people urgently need your help today. 

Famine has been declared (in the Zamzam, Al Salam and Abu Shouk Refugee Camps) in North Darfur, and people in other areas of Sudan are on the brink of famine, with this expected to worsen in coming months. Escalating conflict has led to acute food insecurity for 24.6 million people, and displaced 12 million. Now, more than half of Sudan’s population – over 30 million people - requires humanitarian assistance.

Concern's work to support Sudanese people

Concern staff are on the ground, working tirelessly to provide life-saving assistance to those in need.

  • In 2024, Concern reached over 484,000 people, providing life-saving health and nutrition support, cash transfers, and emergency supplies.  
  • Concern has treated children under five for acute malnutrition across 79 health facilities
  • Concern provides vital health and nutrition programmes to families who have fled to the border into Chad and South Sudan. 

This is not enough, there are so many more families who urgently need our support. Please donate today to save lives.

Severe food insecurity

The people of Sudan are facing famine.  Right now, over half of Sudan’s population – that’s nearly 25 million people – are facing acute food insecurity, with 638,000 people in IPC Phase 5 – the most serious.  

The needs will only worsen as communities face displacement and lack of food, water, shelter and sanitation. 

Seeking refuge

For those who have sought refuge in neighbouring countries, the journey to safety has been harrowing. Bahar*, pictured above, was forced to separate from his wife Arafa* and their two sons while on their journey from Sudan to Chad. They did not know if they would ever find each other again. 

When they arrived in Chad exhausted and hungry, they were met by Concern staff who provided them with much-needed food and essential items such as sleeping mats, jerry cans and mosquito nets. The family has thankfully been reunited and thanks to the kindness of Concern's supporters has the basic items they need to survive.

Your donation can help

Emergency response and cash assistance

Cash assistance in Sudan has provided immediate relief to those impacted by the conflict giving people the autonomy to buy food and medicine.

Healthcare 

With 70% of the healthcare system shut down in conflict-affected areas, Concern has supported dozens of healthcare facilities and mobile clinics, treating malnutrition and water-borne diseases such as cholera and malaria.

Nutrition

Concern Sudan is working with communities, providing services to treat and prevent malnutrition in children under five years old and pregnant and breast-feeding women.
