A Drop of Vaccine, A Lifetime of Protection: Help Sabah Alsudan Reach 10,000 Children
In a displacement camp in North Darfur, a mother holds her baby close. She fled her village with nothing—no home, no belongings, no certainty about tomorrow. But she has hope. Hope that her child will survive. Hope that someone will reach them with the vaccines that could mean the difference between life and death.
Her name is Amal. Her baby is named Yadin, just 11 months old. When they arrived at a mobile clinic, Yadin was weak, her body tired, her eyes dull . But there, she received more than food. She received protection. Vaccines that will guard her against diseases that have stolen too many children already .
In Sudan today, that protection is vanishing.
The conflict has pushed childhood immunization rates back almost 40 years. More than half of infants—at least 880,000 children—missed their first doses of life-saving vaccines last year alone . Sudan now has the lowest immunization coverage in the world .
This is not a statistic. It is 880,000 children like Yadin, like baby Muhammad Saleh who was six months old without a single vaccine , like the infants born every day into a country where measles, polio, and diphtheria are surging back .
Disease outbreaks are spreading through overcrowded displacement camps and remote villages. Measles—a disease we know how to prevent—is claiming children's lives . Polio has returned . Cholera is spreading . And the children most at risk are those already made vulnerable by conflict, displacement, and poverty.
But Sabah Alsudan is fighting back.
Sabah Alsudan (SABAH Association for Child Care and Development) has worked for years to reach Sudan's most vulnerable children. In partnership with Save the Children, World Vision, and the European Union, we have already delivered education and protection to 83,000 children, including 600 children with disabilities . Now, we are expanding our mission to include one of the most critical interventions of all: life-saving vaccines.
We are launching a campaign to reach 10,000 children with vaccines that protect against measles, polio, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, and other preventable diseases . We will fund:
Vaccination drives that bring immunization services directly to communities cut off from care
Cold chain logistics ensuring vaccines remain potent even when traveling through conflict zones
Community health education teaching families why vaccines matter and when to seek them
This is how we stop outbreaks before they start. This is how we protect a generation.
Your support means that a child in a remote village receives the same protection as a child in Khartoum. It means that a mother displaced by war does not have to watch her baby suffer from a disease we know how to prevent. It means that Sudan's children—already enduring so much—do not have to lose their lives to preventable illness.
What Your Contribution Provides:

As Afaf, a vaccinator who has served communities for decades, says: "I want all the children to be vaccinated, and I want to be able to bring the vaccinations to their doorsteps, so no child is missed" .
