Help Children & Women in South Sudan

Though South Sudan gained its independence in 2011, the nation has remained plagued by conflict, with ongoing violence and instability deeply affecting its people. The civil war that erupted in 2013 has caused widespread devastation, leaving millions displaced and struggling to meet their basic needs. Women and children have borne the brunt of this crisis, facing extreme poverty, food insecurity, lack of education, and limited access to healthcare.

Children Aid South Sudan (CASS) has stepped in to provide vital support during these challenging times. Through targeted programs in Health, Nutrition, Education, Gender Equality, and Livelihood, CASS is helping to rebuild lives and communities. By focusing on empowering women and children, CASS is addressing the immediate humanitarian needs while also laying the foundation for long-term peace and development in South Sudan.
