Hello. My name is Randa. My family and I are trying to raise funds to help our family in Sudan. The initial goal is 9,000 euros. However, we will need to exceed this goal/increase it once evacuation becomes an option. (Note on photo used below*).

Whom will you be helping:

How this fund will be used:

My great-uncle Kamal and his wife Tasneem have five children, all of them under 10. They're originally from Omdurman and evacuated to Gezira state at the start of the war when his wife was pregnant with their fourth child. Currently, they're in Al-Ibaidiya. Like many Sudanese, they were hoping to enter Egypt after having been displaced countless times. They're inching closer to Egypt, but hopes of entering the country are dimming fast. People are dying on the journey to Egypt, either from heat, hunger, illnesses or some combination of the three. Please help us prevent this from happening to Kamal, Tasneem, their children and Tasneem's mother.

Survival is the priority. They won't be granted entry into Egypt anytime soon, so the focus is on ensuring they have enough to eat, access to transportation, and some semblance of health care. My great-uncle Kamal has been suffering from constant headaches, which never stop. He is in his 60s and suffers from hypertension and diabetes. He no longer has access to the medication required to manage these conditions.

They may need to go to one of the few safer areas to access healthcare and wait for us to gather the necessary funds for their evacuation. There, they can begin renewing their passports and getting a passport for the youngest child. This is where you can help. I will post updates as often as we receive them.
