My story

This Christmas, St Edmund's is fundraising to support families who've have fled from violence to buy food and lifesaving supplies.

In places like South Sudan, for families like Shede's, the daily struggle is not just for safety but also to protect their children from hunger and malnutrition. Having left everything behind, they arrive in refugee settlements with just the clothes they fled in.

Even resilient individuals now face an uncertain future.

Please give what you can. With your help, we can support families like Shede's find some comfort and joy during conflict.

How your money helps

This Christmas, you can support families in South Sudan; a country ravaged by conflict and the climate crisis.

Extreme poverty is deepening, as food shortages, high prices, lack of clean water, and poor sanitation make daily life an enormous challenge for most. As more families arrive to seek refuge each day, exponential pressure is being put on communities and humanitarian organisations who are already at breaking point.

Every pound you raise could provide:

  • Nutritious meals to help families combat hunger and malnutrition.
  • Blankets and warm clothing to bring comfort to children far from home.
  • Financial assistance that enables families to buy essential items and rebuild their lives.

Your donations, this Christmas, will bring hope to those who need it most.
