Qatar Charity launches urgent relief campaign for Sudan


Qatar Charity (QC) has started distribution of urgent relief aid to the victims of the unprecedented devastating flood in Sudan.
Qatar Charity’s field teams have delivered food parcels, personal hygiene kits, mattresses, and blankets to the most affected people in Ad-Damar and Berber of the River Nile State, as well as in Jabal Awliya and Bahri in the Khartoum State.
The humanitarian aid comes within the framework of the relief campaign entitled “Peace for Sudan”, which was launched by Qatar Charity to provide QR7.3mn worth of shelter and food aid to the affected people in Sudan.
As part of the campaign, which is expected to benefit 75,000 people, the field teams will distribute medical and study tents and other shelter essentials, in addition to giving tents to vulnerable families.
The flood is described as the worst in Sudan in a century, which has affected more than half a million people and destroyed over 100,000 homes. Besides, 2,705 utilities were damaged, and nearly 100 people were killed in the flood.
Qatar Charity appeals to the people in Qatar to support Sudan flood victims, who are in desperate need of emergency aid, and help them survive this humanitarian disaster, urging benefactors to contribute to Qatar Charity’s “Peace for Sudan” relief campaign to provide food aid and shelters to the maximum number of beneficiaries. – QNA
