The Sixteenth of May Foundation is an international nonprofit organization whose Call today is to promote humanitarian involvement in Sudan, by building villages complete with an orphanage, school, medical clinic, library and sports fields. This will be achieved through relief and rehabilitation as a means of achieving sustainable development and to commemorate the lives lost and celebrate the victory of peace, justice and equality amongst the Sudanese people.
On Monday, 16th of May, 1983 at around 5:00am, the first bullet sliced open the morning air with a sound that silenced close to 3 million lives over the next twenty three years. It led to a silence that to this day is still deafening.
