When there is war going on camps are where people get food, shelter, and help with diseases prevention.

The food is running out and the markets are empty without food people will starve. Even if food is available people in south sudan have no money to get the food. In South Sudan it is hard to harvest food because of the little technology and, the flooding, people go far away from the homes due to the violence and bad weather such as droughts this causes them to not be able to stay at one place and harvest food.(If the weather is nice enough to harvest.)

Lastly South Sudan needs water. Water is an essential need to living without water Men, Women,and Children will not survive. Instead of doing everyday activities Women and Children spend their days gathering water. The average household lives 45 minutes away from the nearest water source. “I worry about my children. I don’t know when this war will stop….There is no good news. There is only talk of fighting and attacks. The children have no food to eat..no school to go to” (www.merceycrops.org
