The transformation of her project demonstrates how the right support can turn agricultural potential into productive, income-generating opportunities.

By supporting women's agricultural enterprises, the initiative enables women to strengthen their agricultural businesses, increase productivity, improve their livelihoods, and contribute to food security while building more resilient communities.

Mohamed Allam

Mohamed Allam

Amid the difficult circumstances caused by the war, “Mohamed Allam”, a child from El Fasher, was injured by a gunshot wound to the head that affected his ability to speak and impacted his mobility. This marked the beginning of a challenging journey in search of the medical care he urgently needed.

Following the injury, “Mohamed” was displaced with his family on a difficult journey, while he continued to suffer from the consequences of the incident for weeks. The bullet remained lodged in his head, and a brain abscess developed, further worsening his medical condition.

When the referral team at Sadagaat Charity Organization received a report about “Mohamed’s” case, he was supported through the Referral System under the Health and Nutrition Project, funded by the Sudan Humanitarian Fund (SHF) through Alight, as part of the Emergency Response Program within the first 48 hours. Through this intervention, “Mohamed” was referred to Dongola Police Hospital, Northern State, where he underwent a critical surgery to remove the bullet and treat the brain abscess.

During his treatment and recovery period, “Mohamed” received the necessary support to access healthcare services, including assistance with transportation, treatment-related expenses, and essential needs, in addition to psychological support that helped him cope with the impact of the traumatic experience.

Following the successful surgery, “Mohamed” regained his ability to speak and showed improvement in his mobility, giving him a renewed opportunity to return to his daily life. His story reflects the impact achieved through the Referral Program under the Health and Nutrition Project; by facilitating access to specialized medical services and providing comprehensive support to the most vulnerable cases, the program helped save critical cases and provided patients with a real opportunity for treatment and recovery.
