Arusha, Tanzania – 20 September 2025 – Education in Crisis (EiC), a youth-led organization working to protect and restore education for children affected by conflict, poverty and displacement led by professional youth from 7 African countries united by one mission: making accessible equitable, inclusive, quality education to all, has been awarded the “Most Dedicated Children’s Education Services Organisation 2025 – Sudan” by Acquisition International (UK) under its prestigious Non-Profit Organisation Awards 2025.

Present in Sudan since 2020 through its flagship program: The Foundational Scholars Program, this award recognizes EiC’s relentless efforts to ensure that children in Sudan, one of the world’s most severe education crises, are not left behind. With more than 19 million school-aged children currently out of school due to conflict, EiC has remained at the forefront, delivering innovative interventions such as the accelerated learning initiatives, school feeding programs, Emergency responses to disasters and the TutaLearn digital platform.

“This recognition is not only a reflection of EiC’s work but a tribute to the resilience of Sudanese children and the communities we serve. Education is not a privilege—it is a lifeline, and we remain committed to ensuring that every child has access to safe, inclusive, and quality learning opportunities, even in times of crisis,” said George Nalo, Founder and Executive Director of Education in Crisis.

This recognition belongs to the children we serve, our incredible team, and partners who stand with us in the fight to protect education during crisis. Our donors and supporters are a backbone to this achievement because their support enables us to move mountains ensuring no child is hashtag#LeftBehind even in emergencies. Thank you!

Every child deserves a classroom, a teacher, and a future filled with hope—not war. EiC is present at times needed most by children. Together, we will continue to ensure that no child is left behind everywhere we go.

EiC extends gratitude to its dedicated donors, team, community partners, and supporters across the globe who share in this mission. This award reaffirms EiC’s vision to mobilize 1 million Africans for education by 2029, ensuring that children caught in crises have access to the opportunities they deserve.
