Overview
On April 15, 2023, clashes between rival military factions in Sudan erupted, causing more than 954,000 people to be displaced as a result of the escalation in violence.
The United Nations estimates that 5 million additional people will need humanitarian assistance inside Sudan, while 860,000 are expected to flee to neighboring countries.
The conflict has caused a scarcity of electricity, water, medical supplies and food. In some areas, the price of basic commodities—such as bottled water, food and fuel—has risen by 40 to 60 percent.
The result is a worsening humanitarian crisis among displaced families.
Send Relief is providing emergency food relief, transportation, trauma care and shelter to the most vulnerable. Your gifts to Send Relief are vital to these ongoing efforts.
