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.
