Frontline Aid partners with organizations to fulfill the needs in Sudan.  The primary needs we focus on are medical, educational, slave retrieval and humanitarian food delivery, especially in emergency situations.  We invite you to join us in changing the world, one life at a time! 


Education


DANIEL DENG

In August, 2009, Frontline Aid funded the education for Daniel Deng to complete high school at Gateway Secondary School in Aweil, Northern Bahr el Ghazal Province, South Sudan.  Schools were destroyed during the war with North Sudan and Daniel was unable to complete his last year of high school.  I first met Daniel in 2004 at Dr. Luka Deng's medical clinic in Wanyjok where he has served as a medical assistant for six years.  Since that first meeting Daniel has always impressed me as a very committed, capable man.  This impression was confirmed by Dr. Luka who encouraged Frontline Aid to assist with furthering Daniel's education.  Daniel intends to continue after high school with medical training in pharmacology.  With this training he will be a greater asset to Dr. Luka and to his community.  Frontline Aid will continue to support Daniel in his endeavours.  Frontline Aid invites you to assist Daniel in furthering his education.


Medical

In December, 2009 Frontline Aid funded the education of Akuei Deng to attend Kenya College of Medicine and Related Studies in Nairobi, Kenya.  Akuei is a medical assistant working in the clinic of Dr. Luka Deng in Wanyjok, Sudan and has already some medical studies completed.  In January 2010, Akuei will begin a diploma in Community Health and Epidemiology.  Frontline Aid invites you to assist with furthering Akuei's education and caring for his children who will remain in Sudan during the course studies.


Slave Retrieval

In May, 2009 Frontline Aid joined with aid workers and slave retrievers to return 150 freed slaves to South Sudan.  The slaves, taken in raids by North Sudan Arabs, were redeemed by other Arabs who are against slavery and aid in freeing them.  The cost of the slaves' freedom is a mere cattle vaccine.  The slave owner Arabs in North Sudan are primarily livestock owners and to receive vaccines for the preservation of their herds is a worthy exchange.  A vaccine costs only $55.  
The slaves who were freed suffered abuses from rape (both males and females were raped) and amputations to draggings.

Humanitarian Food Delivery


 
Representatives from Frontline Aid and other aid organizations delivered Unimix to malnourished children and adults in South Sudan.  Among those assisted were babies on the brink of death.  With the assistance of medical attention and substinance, the young survived.  Frontline Aid invites you to help change and save lives in Sudan!
