They leave behind everything — their
belongings, their livelihoods, and often their sense of safety.
Your support brings hot meals, clean water, safe shelter, and hope to people living in
displacement camps near Nyiragongo and across eastern DRC.
One donation can ease suffering today.
One act of compassion can remind a family that they are not forgotten.
“This summer, I visited the refugee camp, Kanyaruchinya, near the volcano Nyiragongo, with our fantastic team of SEPCA volunteers. We were able to provide meals to over 4,000 children. Their faces lit up with happiness, if only for a moment. It was heartwarming. They kept asking if we would come back tomorrow, again and again.”
Moments like these are why SEPCA exists – to show up, to care, and to bring dignity to families who have lost so much.
Millions of Congolese families are living through one of the world’s most severe
humanitarian emergencies.
● Over 5 million people displaced by ongoing violence and instability
● Limited healthcare and poor sanitation leave communities vulnerable to deadly
disease outbreaks
● Natural disasters, including volcanic eruptions and floods, destroy homes
overnight
Behind every statistic is a family trying to survive another day.
● US $25 — feeds a family a hot meal and basic staples for several days
● US $60 — provides a shelter kit: tent, mattress, blankets, tarpaulin
● US $120 — funds clean water delivery and emergency WASH supplies for a small camp
Every contribution becomes immediate relief for a family in crisis.
SEPCA is a grassroots, volunteer‑powered organisation.Our local teams respond quickly, compassionately, and with deep understanding of the communities we serve.

● Clean drinking water
● Tents, mattresses, and emergency shelter kits
● Hygiene stations, latrines, and hygiene kits
● Safe play spaces and toys for children, restoring a sense of normalcy and joy
Our volunteers ensure every dollar is used where it will have the greatest impact.
● SEPCA supplied tents, fresh water, food (beans, rice, oil), mattresses, and
ongoing distributions of toys and games for children.

parcels.
These are not just numbers — they are families who slept safely, children who ate a
warm meal, and communities who felt seen and supported.
