last year of funding by the Catholic Agency For Overseas Development,
and we are looking for new donors to enable it to continue.
AIDS suffers become outcasts.
The HIV/AIDS Awareness Outreach, conducted by three teams of
volunteers and trainers, annually reaches more than 15,000 people in the
displaced communities which surround Khartoum.
One of our local partners

from their home areas, who by their efforts to deal with the growing AIDS pandemic in
Sudan are making a valuable political and social statement.
Together for Sudan is expanding it's vital HIV/AIDS
Outreach to Southern Sudan in 2012. Beginning with a modest project
in Juba to be conducted with a longstanding partner organisation.
