Why We Need a Centralized Calendar
Our South Sudanese communities host numerous cultural, social, and civic events every month, creating a vibrant but sometimes chaotic schedule.
Overlapping events cause confusion and missed opportunities. Our accessible online calendar helps everyone stay informed and engaged, eliminating scheduling conflicts and maximizing participation in our rich community life.
The Richness of South Sudanese Culture
National Celebrations
SPLA DAY (May 16th) and other national observances unite our community in pride and remembrance.
Seasonal Festivals
Harvest celebrations and seasonal ceremonies follow ancient traditions unique to our 60+ ethnic groups.
Community Gatherings
Regular social events strengthen bonds between generations and preserve our cultural heritage.
Challenges Without a Unified Calendar
Scheduling Conflicts
Multiple events are often scheduled simultaneously without coordination, forcing community members to choose between important gatherings.
Planning Difficulties
Community members struggle to plan attendance or volunteer commitments without a clear view of upcoming events.
Reduced Participation
Organizers face lower turnout when events conflict, diminishing impact and wasting resources on competing gatherings.
