Why
South Sudan Refugee Outreach
The refugee crisis of South Sudan doesn’t often make the evening news but the scale and scope are enormous. The humble country of Uganda is hosting a million of these refugees, who’ve fled from horrific violence. Mostly they rely on limited food aid and there are almost no fresh fruits and vegetables, leading to health problems. Over half the refugees are children. Yet, they have small plots of land and a desire to learn. That’s where we see hope! This will be a good test for the power of FARM STEW and of God who is our leader.
The Challenges
Refugees face many challenges
- Teaching how to obtain a locally available healthy diet
- Encouraging locals to follow basic sanitary practices
- Supplying sanitary pads for girls, preventing dropouts and shame
- Equipping families with tools and seeds for sustainable gardens

- Hiring refugees to reach refugees, we invest in the local people
- Providing Uganda's best non-GMO seed for kitchen gardens
