Challenging "Relief Dependency" in South Sudan


Want to help the people of South Sudan rebuild their families and communities that will make them less dependent on your donations tomorrow? Donate to Operation Nehemiah - a faith based indigenous grass roots ministry led by William Levi. Our goal is to build a self sufficient community through entrepreneurial and sustainable projects.  In doing so we combat the relief dependency that is often fostered by the charitable efforts. Of so many well meaning. NGO's and government programs. That means that eventually these people won't need our money anymore.

For example,  I just returned from a 4 month trip to South Sudan, and washable to help establish a large scale block making business. That employs 20 South Sudanese men and provides for their families. They now have the dignity of earning their own living without relying on handouts.
