Our Work: HRF carried out a needs assessment in the Red Sea region of Eastern Sudan. We have identified 10 critical Primary schools in Eastern Sudan who are in desperate need of rehabilitation, including water and sanitation support. The appeal, Schools 4 Sudan, has recently been launched to raise enough funds to implement this project in 2012.
