How your donations are used
UUSC has chosen to channel donations through organizations working directly
with grassroots communities in the affected areas in Darfur and with refugee groups in Chad,
including the following:
Darfur Peace and Development
Darfur Peace and Development is working in coordination with 34 grassroots
organizations in Sudan and Chad to restore peace and achieve sustainable development and
coexistence in the Darfur Region of Western Sudan. Relief efforts include transportation and
distribution programs for aid and medical assistance through schools, churches, masjids, and
other organizations in the affected area.
Action by Churches Together
Action by Churches Together (ACT) International and Caritas International
has put together an Darfur emergency response to continue the work of ACT members and partners
Nowegian Church Aid, the Sudan Council of Churches, Sudan Development Organization and
Sudanaid of the Sudan Council of Churches. They will provide shelter, water, sanitation and
basic sleeping and kitchen materials and provide supplementary food to 50,000 children under
the age of 5 and provide education for school aged children and women rape victims.
