AYUAL COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATION (ACDA)
Ayual Community Development Association (ACDA), a Philadelphia-based 501(c)3 non-profit organization founded by the Lost Boys and Girls of Sudan, was created out a desire to promote positive change in our people's lives by providing educational support, health care needs, and emergency assistance to our people in Southern Sudan and in the Diaspora. In the 20th century, the outbreak of war between Sudan People Liberation Army and the government of the Sudan has had devastating effects on our entire community. Our people have been adversely affected socially, politically, economically, emotionally, physically, and educationally.

MISSION
Our mission is to promote positive change in our people's today lives and to build and enhance our community in which they survive the ordeal. That means helping to create opportunity in the lives of no-income young people and their families - and working to improve the quality of life in the Ayual community that shape and bring them a bright future.
