The foundation volunteers, who have left for the country in order extend a hand to the flood victims, initially contacted the local administrations in Hartum to inquire into the locations in need. In cooperation with local relief organizations, the volunteers have been trying to access the locations in urgent need. In one of the neighboring regions, they distributed five truckloads of tents and food to a total of 300 victim families listed in advance with the contributions of the local administrations.

The institution “Al-Birr and Tawasul Conducts”, which was initiated by the Sudanese ministers’ wives, contributed to the aid delivery as well. The families in the disaster zone are going to live in the tents provided by the foundation, until their houses are rebuilt.
