Focus on Yemen
After a decade of crisis, Yemen remains one of the world’s most severe humanitarian disasters. Today, 23.1 million people require urgent assistance; 18 million face acute hunger, and millions of children suffer from life-threatening malnutrition.
Yemen is a country in the Middle East that has faced unprecedented challenges due to a decade-long conflict, resulting in one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises, widespread displacement, and economic collapse.
Current Challenges
Conflict and DisplacementYears of ongoing violence have driven over 4.5 million people from their homes. Countless communities are internally displaced, living in makeshift camps and in urgent need of safe shelter.
Severe Food InsecurityEconomic instability and disrupted supply chains have pushed the country toward famine. Over half the population struggles to afford basic necessities, leaving millions — especially children — suffering from acute malnutrition.
Healthcare CollapseThe crisis has decimated public infrastructure. With hospitals damaged and severe shortages of medical supplies, families are exposed to preventable diseases like cholera.

Stories From The Ground
Salem’s Story
In the village of Alharah, in the Harf Sufain district of the Amran governorate, Salem’s family faced a difficult situation. Their two-year-old grandson, Mohammed, was suffering from severe malnutrition. To make matters worse, their one-year-old granddaughter, Tasneem, was struggling with the same problem.
Salem, a 38-year old sole provider for a family of 14, found it challenging to meet everyone’s needs with the income he earned from his livestock. The weight of his responsibilities became overwhelming. Fortunately, donors like you stepped in to support the local health facility in the Harf Sufain district, in turn providing essential healthcare services to Tasneem and Mohammed.
With time, Mohammed’s health started improving, and Tasneem began her journey to recovery. Salem’s belief in the power of change remained strong even during the darkest times. His hope inspired those around him.
No matter how tough things get, we must hold on to hope. It keeps us going and leads us to a better future.
