Orphans are the most vulnerable group in the refugee camps of East Sudan. This Ramadan, can we give them something to smile about? Good food, new clothes, even a nice Eid gift and a special fun day? I think we can, with your help!
The plight of orphans in refugee camps
This Ramadan, we’re going by the motto: Give Happy, Get Happy. The more you share your joy, the better you’ll feel yourself. And just think of the smiles on the faces of the orphaned refugees!
It’s hard enough living in a refugee camp; every day you navigate danger, disease and difficulty. Imagine tackling these impossible odds as a child – worse still, facing these dangers as an orphan. Children have rights and needs that cannot be fulfilled in the harsh environment of the refugee camps. Orphans are in great danger from starvation, exploitation and disease.
Over the past 15 years, Ethar Relief has been providing aid and distributing your donations to deserving, forgotten refugees. We have a permanent presence in the region and its camps, and are grateful for the trust that the refugees have placed in us. Our orphan sponsorship and support programmes provide resources, safety and security for thousands of children without families.
