A Gift of Warmth in Sudan

A Few years ago, some Canadian Copts from Sudan asked us to partner with them to ensure that their homeland in Sudan gains the same access to basic rights as Egypt. We started working in Sudan with the Coptic Orthodox Church, sending small grants to the two Coptic bishops in Sudan with the support of our donors who were passionate about the region.

In Southern Sudan, Coptic Orphans provided the funds for 300 blankets and 70 boxes of nutritious food. “We’ve brought joy to the orphans, the poor, and those in need,” bishop Elias of Southern Sudan said about the contribution.

Many of the children’s families are refugees from Nubia and Ethiopia, and faced with extreme poverty. The children must often work in the fields to help support their families, making education difficult. One of our biggest priorities in the coming years in Sudan is the education of these children.
