BUILT BY SOUTH SUDANESE WOMEN, FOR THE COMMUNITIES WE COME FROM.

Across South Sudan, conflict, displacement and poverty leave women and girls carrying the heaviest load: violence, early and forced marriage, and exclusion from economic life. We go where help is limited or does not exist.

      Our work in action


      Women saving and
      lending together

      Members of our Village Savings and Loan Associations save as a group and borrow from it, building financial independence and solidarity.

      Fast help in a crisis

      In four major emergencies, we have delivered shelter materials, household and hygiene supplies, and protection services to families forced from their homes.

      Communities making peace

      Networks of women and youth leaders now run local peace dialogues and healing sessions, lowering tension in fragile communities.
