Lucia’s life began in hardship after losing both parents to war and hunger in Sudan. Abused and neglected, she faced a future of fear and survival. But through Lift Up the Vulnerable’s anti-trafficking network, Lucia found safety, education, and hope — transforming her life from despair to possibility through God’s redeeming love.

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.

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.

At a rural medical clinic in South Sudan, a desperate father carried his only child to Lift Up the Vulnerable’s team, pleading for help. His two-year-old daughter, Agor, was born with a rare and life-threatening condition that could only be corrected by surgery far beyond their reach. With tears, prayers, and the support of compassionate donors, hope broke through despair — opening the door for Agor to receive the life-saving treatment she needs.
