As El Fasher, once the heart of North Darfur, descends into devastation—with homes burned, hospitals looted, and families fleeing along dangerous roads—tens of thousands have walked over 100 km to reach Tawila. Between October 26 and November 4 alone, more than 81,800 people were newly displaced from El Fasher, arriving with children weak, mothers exhausted, and the elderly barely surviving.

Tawila has rapidly transformed from a rural locality into a major humanitarian epicenter, now hosting roughly 652,000 internally displaced people. Most live in overcrowded, informal sites with minimal infrastructure, and fewer than 10% of households have reliable access to safe water, in what has become one of the world’s fastest-growing displacement crises.

SAPA’s teams are among the few responders on the ground in Tawila, providing emergency medical care, food, clean water, and shelter through mobile clinics, central kitchens, and relief distributions. These life-saving services are overwhelmed and urgently need support to keep going.

Your donation today can help keep clinics open, meals cooking, and safe water flowing for families fleeing El Fasher and seeking safety in Tawila.
