Hi, I'm raising money to support UNICEF's Children of Sudan.

As a Type 1 diabetic muslim, I am unable to fast so donating to charity has become extremely important to me both during and outside of Ramadan. This year, I’ve decided to donate to help the children of Sudan. Ramadan should be a month full of generosity, reflection, self improvement and coming closer to faith. It is important that we think of people around the world who need our support during this time. Since April 2023, civil war has raged in Sudan. It has triggered the world’s largest displacement crisis, with millions of children displaced. What began as a fight for control of the capital Khartoum spread across the country, igniting ethnic violence and relentless attacks on hospitals, schools, and water and power supplies.

Families have fled repeatedly, seeking safety in overcrowded camps and makeshift shelters. Millions lack access to food, clean water, healthcare, and education. Most hospitals and health centres are destroyed or overwhelmed. There are repeated outbreaks of cholera, malaria, and dengue. 24 million people are food insecure, as the conflict has destroyed livelihoods, devastated agriculture, caused food prices to soar, and blocked aid.

With supplies and living conditions rapidly declining, UNICEF needs our help to reach more children and families.

I highly encourage you to consider donating and sharing as we enter the last 10 days of Ramadan. No amount is too great or small. May all of your efforts be rewarded greatly.
