Will You Help Save Sudanese Clinics?


Dear jay,

11 clinics in the remote Magwi County of southern Sudan will soon close if we do not raise $24,000. So far, we've raised $1,923.18. We need your help to raise the rest.

What happens if the clinics close? About 160,000 people will have no access to basic health care. This will mean the difference between life and death for many people. Can you help? Your gift will go directly to the clinics in Magwi.

Magwi County in Southern Sudan is extremely remote. Villages are scattered, and transportation around the region is difficult – sometimes dangerous. Communities are very poor and vulnerable. Malnutrition and outbreaks constantly loom over the people of Magwi.

In these conditions, the 11 health facilities – run by ARC and local Sudanese staff – are absolutely life-saving. Without them, people would simply have no access to medical care. No place for pregnant women to give birth...no place to take sick children for medicine...

Unfortunately, that could soon become a reality. We may have to shutter these facilities for the next 6 months if we can't raise $24,000.

You can help keep these clinics stay open! Please consider making a gift online.

Please, let friends and family know about the clinics in Magwi. We need all the help we can get to keep them open.

Thank you so much,

Sincerely,

-Daniel

P.S. If you can make a gift - of any size - it would make a big difference for the people of Magwi County.
