Our Mission
We are AUC SIC, a dedicated group of students from Spelman College, Morehouse College, and Clark Atlanta University. United by our mission to alleviate the suffering in Sudan, we aim to raise $10,000 to provide critical assistance to those affected by the catastrophic famine.
The Crisis in Sudan
Sudan is Facing a Catastrophic Famine:
- Sudan is enduring a famine with the potential to kill 5% of its population.
- Approximately 2.5 million people, including 230,000 children, pregnant women, and new mothers, are at risk of dying from hunger.
- The situation is so dire that people have resorted to eating mud and dirt to survive.
Ongoing War:
- Since April 2023, Sudan has been engulfed in a brutal conflict between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Force Militia (RSF).
- Both sides have committed severe crimes against humanity, including genocide, mass rape, and torture.
- The U.A.E. is supplying arms to the RSF, exacerbating the violence and displacement due to Sudan's rich natural resources, such as gold and agricultural products.
Extreme Displacement Crisis:
- Sudan now faces the most extreme displacement crisis in the world, with 11 million people displaced.
- Our efforts have already helped feed over 2,000 people, but much more is needed.
Our Connection and Commitment
- Two of our founding members are Sudanese, giving us a deep personal connection to the crisis. We understand the urgency and the gravity of the situation, and we are committed to making a tangible difference.
