SOUTH SUDANESE FRIENDS INTERNATIONAL

Partnering with grassroots organizations for 20 years

South Sudan is the youngest nation -- and one of the least developed. 4 million people are in an emergency level food crisis. 1.4 million are internally displaced. 3 states are in a civil war. Only 27% of the population is literate. More than 25% of the population has HIV or AIDs. Almost 75% don't have access to education, employment, or clean water. 

SSFI is a non-profit organization sponsoring grassroots projects that provide sustainable skills and resources to the people of South Sudan, empowering them to live peaceful and self-reliant lives.
