About this campaign:

Yar Achiek Mading, age 3 (pictured), and her 1 1/2-year-old sister Ajak were abducted October 3 from Bor County by gunmen believed to be from the Murle tribe.
This is the blog of Yar and Ajak's uncle, Gabriel Kou Solomon of St. Paul, Minnesota, who is campaigning for an end to all child abduction in South Sudan.
