Sacha Baron Cohen showed strong support for Sudan’s humanitarian crisis by donating $500,000 to two leading charities: Save the Children and the International Rescue Committee. Both organizations are actively working to provide essential aid like food, medical care, and clean water to families affected by conflict and displacement.
In a heartfelt statement, Cohen said, “Millions of children are at risk of starvation in Sudan. I’m donating to Save the Children and the IRC because they have teams on the ground providing immediate aid. I hope others will join in supporting their crucial work.” His words emphasize the urgency of the situation and highlight his commitment to making a real difference.
Among the contributors were actors, musicians, and advocates who used their platforms to draw attention to the crisis. Their efforts helped fund essential services such as food distribution, medical aid, and shelter for displaced families. The donation was split among several charities, including Save the Children, International Rescue Committee (IRC), and the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), all of which are actively working in Sudan.
The conflict in Sudan has forced millions to flee their homes and pushed many to the brink of starvation. With growing instability and limited access to basic services, the support from global voices has played a key role in bringing international awareness and assistance to the region.
By contributing to organizations with proven impact, Cohen not only helps those in immediate need but also encourages others to step up. His donation supports life-saving efforts and reflects his belief in using his platform to back meaningful action during times of crisis.
