EMPOWERING HOPE. CULTIVATING OPPORTUNITY.
Building Sustainable Futures in South Sudan.
OUR PROJECTS
GEMS works across four connected areas to support healthier, more resilient communities in South Sudan.
Goats provide families with nourishing milk and a new source of income to combat food and financial insecurity.
GOATS
We support and provide opportunities for children to learn and build toward a brighter future.
EDUCATION
We improve access to essential healthcare and medical support. We help those in need through clinics, support for polio survivors, and care for new mothers.
MEDICINE
GEMS invests in long-term community needs through projects such as clean-water access, empowering women-run business, and sustainable farming.

Life-Changing Experiences
“My name is Luka Garang Kenyang. I am Dinka, living in Korok Center. GEMS has made a lot of differences in my life in different ways. The salary I make from GEMS improves my living status, and the humanitarian work that I have been involved in to help the needy has also helped me learn a lot in different fields!”
