Rebel troops in Uganda burst into a school in October
1996 and kidnapped 14-year-old Charlotte Awino, along with many of her classmates. Some of
the girls eventually escaped. Charlotte is still missing.
Ugandan rebels have abducted thousands of children
during recent years and taken them to the camps they operate, with support from the
Sudanese Government, in Sudan. There, the children are forced into prostitution or armed
combat.
Parents of the abducted children have formed an
organization, Concerned Parents, and have demanded government action to find the children
and to halt the abductions.
Please write to the President of Sudan on behalf of
Charlotte, her family, and many other families in Uganda.
