John Dau Foundation

The John Dau Foundation is a non-profit based in upstate New York and led by a dynamic refugee, John Dau. He has inspired business and non-profit leaders to help him establish the Foundation and create the first comprehensive & sustainable community medical clinic in his home village of Duk Payuel. Called the Duk Lost Boys Clinic, it has been in operation since 2007 and served more than 60,000 people for a range of illnesses. Since its founding, John has been a driving force behind the great progress in bringing modern healthcare to South Sudan. His innovative leadership has brought about cost-effective, reliable, and high-quality healthcare to Duk County, South Sudan. JDF in the U.S. operates a "virtual office" with a mix of part-time staff and volunteers, which helps keep our overhead costs down.
