Where we work | Sudan
Three decades of combating preventable blindness in Sudan.
Since 1993, our camps and hospitals have served communities from Khartoum to Port Sudan. Ten permanent hospitals, local doctors, and care that has continued through the hardest of years.
Our presence
Ten hospitals. One promise.
Sudan is our largest hospital network anywhere in the world. These doors have been open for decades, staffed by Sudanese doctors and nurses.

A life changed
Toma can see clearly, discovering the world around her.
Born with childhood cataracts in rural Sudan, Toma’s family could not afford treatment. Through Al Basar USA outreach, she received surgery and regained her sight.

Beyond the hospitals
Care that reaches every state.
Hospitals anchor the work. Mobile clinics, classrooms, and a training college extend it.
School screenings
Six campaigns since 2007, from Khartoum to Port Sudan, Atbara and beyond. The largest school-screening footprint in our network.
Free mobile clinics
586 camps across 170 cities and towns since May 1993, delivering surgery and glasses where no hospital reaches.
Makkah Technical College
Training Sudan’s next generation of eye-care professionals since 2007. This year the college welcomed 258 new students, its first intake since the war began.
Give to Sudan
Someone in Sudan will see tomorrow because of what you do today.
Choose an amount, or give monthly to keep all ten hospitals running year round.
Zakat
Your Zakat can return someone’s sight.
Al Basar USA is fully Zakat-eligible. Give with certainty that your obligation reaches those who need it most.
