In swift response to the catastrophic floods that struck several Sudanese states, Qatar Charity (QC) has launched an emergency relief intervention to aid thousands of affected families. Powered by the generosity of donors in Qatar, the initiative aims to deliver essential supplies and support to communities already burdened by the ongoing conflict. The response comes at a critical time, with the autumn season approaching and heightened risks of disease outbreaks.
Qatar Charity plans to deliver emergency assistance to over 100,000 of Sudan’s most vulnerable flood victims across four states: Khartoum, White Nile, Al Jazirah, and River Nile. Water levels in the Nile, Blue Nile, and White Nile have risen to unprecedented heights, devastating homes and farmland and leaving thousands displaced and in urgent need of shelter and aid.
Qatar Charity’s field teams in Sudan have begun assessing urgent needs in food, shelter, and health, with a focus on vulnerable groups—women, children, the elderly, and people with disabilities—to help them recover from the initial shock and rebuild their lives.
Qatar Charity’s response plan includes the distribution of 4,000 food baskets, 1,500 family tents, 2,000 sleeping mats, and 3,000 blankets. It also includes 2,000 hygiene kits, 2,000 kitchen sets, and 3,000 long-lasting insecticide-treated mosquito nets to prevent disease outbreaks in Sudan.
Recent floods have caused severe damage to homes, neighborhoods, and farmland across the states of Blue Nile, Sennar, Al Jazirah, Khartoum, River Nile, and Northern. Authorities warn that rising water levels may lead to further loss of life and property. Since September, the UN has warned that repeated flooding is deepening Sudan’s humanitarian crisis, with thousands of families urgently needing shelter and support.
