Tragic news over night. The village of Old Fangak, our base in South Sudan, was overtaken by flood water after the d**e surrounding the village broke. Luckily no loss of life. The population of Old Fangak had mostly fled from the village earlier this year after an aerial bombardment and attack by helicopter gunships. We are resolved to help, and our team mobilized quickly to move people to safety. Please consider a donation to help this evacuation effort. It's needed now more than ever. One barrel of fuel, needed for our boats, is $1,050. You can help today. Thank you. www.ahpss.org/donate
