Organizations Filed Purposes: TO EXPOSE PERSECUTION (EPHESIANS 5:11), TO ASSIST THE VICTIMS OF PERSECUTION (JAMES 2:15-16), TO ENGAGE GOD'S PEOPLE TO INTERCEDE ON BEHALF OF THE PERSECUTED AND SUFFERING (ISAIAH 58:6-12), TO BRING ENCOURAGEMENT, CONSOLATION AND HOPE TO THE PERSECUTED AND SUFFERING (2 CORINTHIANS 1), AND TO EFFECTIVELY BY WORD AND DEED COMMUNICATE THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST (1 JOHN 3:18).

ACTIVE COMPASSION FOR THE PERSECUTED IN EAST AFRICA BY ENGAGING GOD'S PEOPLE TO INTERCEDE ON BEHALF OF THE PERSECUTED, SUPPORTING INTERNALLY DISPLACED PERSONS, CONDUCTING SAFE WATER PROJECTS, CONSTRUCTING A HOSPITAL MATERNITY WARD AND VOLUNTEER ACCOMMODATIONS, DELIVERING MEDICINE, HYGIENIC AND HUMANITARIAN RELIEF, SPONSORING HOLISTIC, VOCATIONAL AND CHRISTIAN EVANGELISM, PASTORAL TRAINING PROGRAMS, TRAUMA TRAINING WORKSHOPS, AND EQUIPPING THE CHURCH TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE SUFFERING AND TO WIN THE LOST TO CHRIST.

RELIEF AND SHELTER:IN ADDITION TO THE BASIC SURVIVAL NEED FOR MEDICINES AND CLEAN WATER, THE WAR IN NUBA HAS FORCIBLY DISPLACED MUCH OF THE POPULATION OF 1.5 MILLION PEOPLE, CAUSING THE NEED FOR BASIC RELIEF AND SHELTER. WITH THE SUPPORT OF OUR DONORS, PPF HAS RESPONDED IN A VARIETY OF PRACTICAL WAYS INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING: REFUGEE KITS, (A.K.A. ACTION PACKS OR LIFE PACKS); CLOTHING, BP-5 COMPACT EMERGENCY FOOD; TARPS; MOSQUITO NETS; AND BLANKETS. BY WORKING THROUGH THE LOCAL CHURCH, PPF IS ABLE TO FELLOWSHIP WITH BELIEVERS UNDER PERSECUTION AS THEY MINISTER TO THEIR NEIGHBORS AND COMMUNITY. IN 2019, PPF FOCUSED ITS RELIEF AND SHELTER MINISTRY ON THE FOUR WAR-AFFECTED COUNTIES: TOLODI, UM DOREIN; HEIBAN; AND DELLAMI. REFUGEE KITS (A.K.A. ACTION PACKS): PPF DISTRIBUTED LIFESAVING REFUGEE KITS (NON-FOOD ITEMS) TO APPROXIMATELY 14,571 HOUSEHOLDS. THE AVERAGE NUMBER OF PERSONS PER HOUSEHOLD IS 7.SHELTER ITEMS (TARPS): 4,500 NUBA FAMILIES (HOUSEHOLDS) INTERNALLY DISPLACED BY THE WAR WERE PROVIDED WITH 5 X 6 METER TARPS.BP-5 COMPACT EMERGENCY FOOD: NUBA IDP FAMILIES RECEIVED 23,521 BOXES OF COMPACT EMERGENCY FOOD TO ASSIST THEM AS THEY REBUILD THEIR LIVES INSIDE NUBA.

TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS (T&L):WORKING IN THE WAR-TORN NUBA MOUNTAINS REQUIRES THE USE OF A VARIETY OF LOGISTICAL TOOLS TO SAFELY AND EFFECTIVELY DELIVER SUPPLIES FOR OUR VARIOUS PROGRAM ACTIVITIES. DURING THE RAINY SEASON, "ROADS" IN THE NUBA MOUNTAINS BECOME IMPASSABLE BY EVEN THE HEAVIEST OF TRUCKS, SO QUAD BIKES AND MOTORBIKES ARE OFTEN EMPLOYED TO DELIVER MEDICINES AND OTHER EMERGENCY RELIEF SUPPLIES TO REMOTE CLINICS AND VILLAGES.IN AREAS WHERE INSECURITY EXISTS, THE SAFEST AVAILABLE MODE OF TRANSPORTATION IS FLIGHTS. THE USE OF CARGO PLANES MINIMIZES THE RISK OF INJURY TO OUR DRIVERS AND WORKERS BY AVOIDING ROADS THAT ARE PATROLLED BY BANDITS OR SOLDIERS. IN 2019, PPF CONDUCTED 23 EMERGENCY RELIEF FLIGHTS FACILITATING THE DELIVERY OF NEARLY 150 METRIC TONS OF RELIEF TO THE NUBA MOUNTAINS. THE FLIGHTS BROUGHT IN MEDICINES AND MEDICAL SUPPLIES, BOREHOLE SPARE PARTS, HOSPITAL BUILDING MATERIALS, HYGIENE KITS, FUEL, RELIEF PACKS, MOTORBIKES FOR PASTORS, BP-5 EMERGENCY FOOD, TARPS, BLANKETS, BIBLES, AUDIO BIBLES AND BIBLE RADIOS.TWO UNIMOG TRANSPORT TRUCKS CONTINUE TO BE USED TO FACILITATE DISTRIBUTONS OF VITAL RELIEF SUPPLIES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, EVEN DURING THE RAINY SEASON. WITH ACCESS TO THE NUBA REGION YEAR-ROUND,PPF NOW HAS THE ABILITY TO BETTER COORDINATE OUTREACH ACTIVITIES IN A TIMELY FASHION AND WHEN THE NUBA PEOPLE NEED IT MOST.

MEDICAL SERVICES:CURRENTLY THE SPLM-N SECRETARIAT OF HEALTH ADMINISTRATES MEDICAL PROGRAMS IN APPROXIMATELY 75% OF THE STATE OF SOUTHERN KORDOFAN. IN 2019, 194 PRIMARY HEALTH CARE FACILITIES RECEIVED MEDICINES SUPPLIED BY PPF. IN ADDITION, PPF SUPPLIES AND ASSISTS 3 MAJOR HOSPITALS IN THE NUBA MOUNTAINS: MOTHER OF MERCY HOSPITAL (MOM) IN GIDEL (LED BY DR. TOM CATENA), TUJORE HOSPITAL IN DELLAMI COUNTY (FORMERLY OPERATED BY SAVE THE CHILDREN), AND THE GEGABA HOSPITAL LED BY DR. AHMED ZAKHARIA.MEDICINES & SUPPLIES:AFTER WAR RETURNED TO THE NUBA IN 2011, ONE OF THE MOST CRITICAL SURVIVAL NEEDS IDENTIFIED BY PPF WAS THE NEED FOR MEDICINE. WE DELIVERED OUR FIRST MAJOR CONSIGNMENT OF MEDICINE TO THE NUBA REGION IN 2012. WE HAVE CONTINUED PROVIDING THIS VITAL NECESSITY IN THE YEARS SINCE. IN 2019, PPF PROVIDED THE NUBA MEDICAL CONSORTIUM (OVERSEEN BY THE LOCAL SECRETARIAT OF HEALTH) WITH ITS LARGEST CONTRIBUTION-10.8 METRIC TONS OF MEDICAL SUPPLIES, IN ADDITION TO 25 METRIC TONS OF MEDICINE REPRESENTING 80 PERCENT OF THE TOTAL MEDICINES DELIVERED TO SOUTHERN KORDOFAN.THIS MEDICAL CONSIGNMENT INCLUDED MEDICINES FOR RESPIRATORY ILLNESSES, ANTI-MALARIALS, ANTIBIOTICS, ANTI-FUNGALS, ANALGESICS, SYRINGES, MULTIVITAMINS, BANDAGES, AND OTHER MEDICAL SUPPLIES.HOSPITAL ADMINISTRATION:PPF DIRECTLY SPONSORS THE ADMINISTRATION OF TWO HOSPITALS: TUJORE HOSPITAL IN DELLAMI COUNTY AND GEGABA HOSPITAL. PPF PROVIDES MEDICINES, FUEL, AND FUNDS FOR STAFF SALARIES, CONSTRUCTION, ETC. TUJORE AND GEGABA EACH TREAT AN AVERAGE OF 1,000 PATIENTS PER MONTH-EVEN MORE DURING THE ANNUAL RAINY SEASON. LACK OF SUFFICIENT MEDICAL SERVICES IN NEIGHBORING SOUTH SUDAN HAS PROMPTED HUNDREDS OF SOUTH SUDANESE TO TRAVEL NORTH EACH MONTH TO GEGABA TO RECEIVE TREATMENT AT THE HOSPITAL. IN ADDITION, PPF PROVIDES MEDICINES AND SPECIALIZED EQUIPMENT TO DR. TOM CATENA AT MOM, BUT MOM IS SUPPORTED PRIMARILY BY THE DIOCESE OF EL OBEID.GEGABA HOSPITAL CONSTRUCTION & VOLUNTEER MEDICAL TEAMS:PPF HAS BEEN SPONSORING THE CONSTRUCTION OF A VOLUNTEER MEDICAL UNIT AT GEGABA HOSPITAL TOWARD THE GOAL OF FACILITATING SHORT AND LONG TERM MEDICAL AND COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS. CONSTRUCTION OF THE MATERNITY WARD AND VOLUNTEER ACCOMMODATIONS HAS HAD PRIORITY IN 2019. IN ADDITION TO BASIC CONSTRUCTION, PPF SPONSORED THE ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION FOR VSAT (SATELLITE INTERNET) THAT WE HAD EARLIER INSTALLED TO FACILITATE COMMUNICATION.GEGEBA HOSPITAL SPIRITUAL DISCIPLESHIP:IN 2019, WORKING IN TANDEM WITH THE LOCAL CHURCH, PPF CONTINUED A DISCIPLESHIP PROGRAM TO PROVIDE SPIRITUAL SERVICES TO THE HOSPITAL STAFF AND PATIENTS. ONCE PER WEEK, A TEAM OF TWO PASTORS VISITS THE HOSPITAL TO PROVIDE SPIRITUAL COUNSELING AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT TO DR. AHMED AND THE PATIENTS AND STAFF AT GEGABA HOSPITAL.DIGNITY KITS FOR WOMEN:PPF PROVIDED OVER 5,000 YOUNG WOMEN AND GIRLS WITH DIGNITY KITS (WOMEN'S HYGIENE KITS). THIS PROGRAM HAS A MEDICAL, EDUCATIONAL, ECONOMIC AND SPIRITUAL IMPACT AS IT IS IMPLEMENTED THROUGH CHURCH AND SCHOOLS AS A PLATFORM FOR WOMEN'S MINISTRY. THERE HAS BEEN AN OVERWHELMINGLY POSITIVE RESPONSE BY THE NUBA COMMUNITY TO THIS OUTREACH. PPF HAS IMPLEMENTED THIS SAME PROGRAM ON A SMALLER SCALE IN LOHUTUK. WHEREVER THESE KITS ARE DISTRIBUTED, THE WOMEN RECEIVING THEM ENCOURAGE US TO CONTINUE TO PROVIDE MORE TO WOMEN THROUGHOUT THE NUBA AREA. THE NEED FOR FEMALE HYGIENE KITS IS MUCH GREATER THAN WHAT PPF HAS THUS FAR SUPPLIED.
