South Sudan is home to 1.9 million internally displaced people and has the third-largest refugee crisis in the world today. Over 83 percent of those fleeing South Sudan are women and children. Children, who are the most affected by the hostile situation, make up 65 percent of the total population. They are survivors of violent attacks and sexual assault. 2.32 million have fled their homes to neighboring countries, but many remain in hostile conditions.
From its founding in 2011 to the present day, the people of South Sudan have had to contend with harsh living conditions such as armed conflict, economic decline, hunger, and disease. While many are fleeing, about half of the population is experiencing hunger shortages, which is exacerbated by political unrest. The lack of water also threatens the survival of millions of South Sudanese people.
Aid Without Borders has been using your generous donations to provide life-saving medical aid, clean water, and food to those suffering. We have also developed educational plans and provided people, especially children, a chance to break this cycle and better their lives. We cannot do so alone, and your continued support is vital to our efforts.
