Stories of hope
Tomorrow is LUV Day ❤️ Love in Action Starts Now
LUV Day is a reminder that love is something we do. Through Fill the Truck with LUV, we’re delivering food and essential supplies to children in Sudan and South Sudan — protecting them from hunger, exploitation, and instability before the rainy season cuts off access.
Hope Investors
In the hardest places, hope shines the brightest. For twenty years, Lift Up the Vulnerable has protected children and women in Sudan and South Sudan from exploitation — equipping them with education, mentorship, and faith-based leadership. This season, your generosity can shine twice as bright through a $250,000 matching grant, transforming despair into hope and empowering the next generation to carry Christ’s light forward.
Restoring Deng’s Heart
In the heart of South Sudan, where access to medical care is scarce, one young boy’s life was transformed through Lift Up the Vulnerable’s network. When twelve-year-old Deng was diagnosed with a terminal heart condition during a rural clinic, his future looked uncertain. But through God’s provision, compassionate donors, and extraordinary coordination, Deng received life-saving surgery in Kenya. Today, he is thriving—proof that hope and healing can reach even the most vulnerable.

Walk a Mile in Their Shoes
Every day, with a simple twist of a knob, clean water flows from our sinks and showers. A bus arrives nearby to pick up children for school, or a guardian offers door-to-door drop-off. With a quick call, a medical appointment can be scheduled for a check-up or urgent need. These conveniences are so typical that most of us don’t even consider what life would be like without them.
Surviving Against the Odds
In South Sudan, with the world’s third lowest literacy rate, ongoing conflict and economic instability, along with a scarcity of educational resources and qualified teachers, severely limit access to quality education. This lack of schooling exposes children and women to heightened risks like human trafficking…
