Support Yemen The Best Way You Can
Our Impact in Yemen
Our Journey of Aiding Yemen
Amid rugged mountains, harsh terrain, successive crises, and voices of suffering heard only by those with compassionate hearts, we began our journey in Yemen, planting seeds of hope in land parched for mercy, and nurturing them through generosity and service.
At a time when overlapping crises intersect to create an increasingly harsh reality for vulnerable communities, we choose to be present, where needs are greatest, hope is scarce, impact is profound, and the reward is multiplied. Our first operations in Yemen began in 2014. We opened two offices in Sana’a and Aden. Our assistance has reached 15 out of Yemen’s 22 governorates. A dedicated team of committed local staff works tirelessly on the ground.
The Humanitarian Situation in Yemen
“Sometimes we have nothing to eat but tree leaves…” With these painful words, a Yemeni woman describes a reality that is difficult to endure—and even harder to express. Figures reflecting the scale of suffering (2024):
- 80% of the population lives below the poverty line
- 4.5 million internally displaced people (IDPs)
- 2.2 million children under the age of five suffer from acute malnutrition
- 49% of health facilities are non-functional

Disclaimer on Aid Delivery
Human Appeal acknowledges the significant challenges in delivering aid to Gaza due to external factors, including ongoing border closures, security concerns, and restrictions imposed by occupying forces. Despite these obstacles, we are committed to responding swiftly and decisively. When opportunities arise—such as temporary openings of border crossings—we act immediately to send in excess supplies. In addition, we work closely with local partners and suppliers within Gaza to ensure that essential goods and services are sourced internally whenever possible. This dual strategy helps us maintain a steady flow of aid, support livelihoods, and reinforce resilience on the ground.
