Robbed of everything she had
This refugee woman fled with her children from the war, and found hope from Tearfund’s emergency relief
Before the recent war in Sudan, Am Salama and her husband were farmers and owned a small restaurant in Fudain, East Darfur. Life was good in their town, and Am Salama sold meat, porridge, and tea in her restaurant.
However, when the war began, everything changed. Am Salama was afraid and had to flee with her six children to South Sudan, leaving her husband behind to care for his blind mother. This led to the separation of the family.
During their escape, Am Salama took some clothes and money, but unfortunately, she was robbed of both during their journey. She and her children faced many hardships, and she was often sick. One of her children lives with autism. She has been living in the Wedwil Refugee Camp for the past six month.
Thanks to donors like you, Am Salama and her children were able to receive two full rounds of food assistance.
She said that her family wouldn’t have survived without Tearfund’s food assistance, and they were able to eat and survive thanks to the support. Am Salama expresses her gratitude and thanks to Tearfund for being so supportive.
Thanks to donors like you, food assistance helps Sudanese refugees like Am Salama have a renewed hope and a brighter future!
