Eita Foundation is a Sudanese non-governmental and non-profit humanitarian organization — a new and different kind of community and youth based humanitarian organization, established on June 15, 2022.
We launched in the fields of emergency responses and implement development and humanitarian projects with high efficiency and distinguished care, through community and youth work teams with high competencies and experience in volunteering, innovation, initiative, humanitarian and development.
After the emergency has passed, we shift from emergency response to long-term capacity building support and training. We provide resources and training to help communities provide a range of services — including food, water and sanitation, educational support and more.
“A strong, connected community where every person has equitable access to resources, opportunities, and support to achieve their fullest potential.”
— Eita Charity Vision
