Over 4 million people are internally displaced inside the Democratic Republic of the Congo and over 600,000 more have fled to 12 other African countries. Bampendi and his six-year-old twin sisters, Mbuyi and Kanku, were orphaned when their mother was killed. Their father is still missing. Like many others, the three children were forced to flee their home. They are now alone, living in orphanage Kananga, Kasai Central Province where over 750,000 people have been internally displaced. They need somebody to care for them.
Since March 2012, renewed conflict has caused further deterioration of an already dire humanitarian situation. Hundreds of thousands of people have been forced to abandon their homes in search of safety and relief.
Your help is needed to protect all the refugee children, women and men who are struggling to survive right now in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
With your help we can provide children like Bampendi, Mbuyi and Kanku with life-saving assistance and protection.
