A Nation on the Brink of Collapse

Yemen is enduring what some call the worst humanitarian crisis of our time. The nation stands on the edge of collapse after more than a decade of civil war, regional blockades, political instability, and climate-related disasters. Millions of Yemenis face daily challenges that most of the world would find unimaginable, from empty food shelves and bombed-out health centers to widespread displacement and hunger. Infrastructure is decimated, public services are dysfunctional or absent, and even humanitarian access remains restricted in many areas. In this environment of prolonged conflict and hardship, over 19 million people, more than half the population, now urgently require humanitarian and protection assistance.

In a country where life was already precarious before the war, families now live without consistent access to clean water, medicine, education, or basic shelter. The cumulative effect of conflict, natural disaster, and neglect has devastated entire communities. Children grow up in fear and malnutrition. Women are forced to give birth without medical care. Grandparents die of preventable diseases. It is a crisis with human faces and pain, and it continues to worsen daily. Now more than ever, a Yemen emergency appeal is not just needed; it is essential.

A Crisis Without Borders

Children at the Epicenter

Children are among the most vulnerable in this ongoing crisis. Many have never known peace, safety, or normal childhood experiences. Hundreds of thousands are suffering from severe hunger, developmental delays, and psychological trauma. Access to education has been severely disrupted, with thousands of schools damaged, destroyed, or occupied, leaving millions of children without a place to learn or play. Instead, many are forced into child labor or early marriage simply to help their families survive. The breakdown of healthcare means that even curable childhood illnesses can become deadly.

Medical care for children is extremely limited, and vaccines are difficult to obtain in conflict zones. In some areas, pediatric clinics operate without electricity, proper hygiene, or even basic medicines. Children are not just collateral damage in this crisis; they are paying the highest price. For those looking to donate to Yemen, reaching these children with aid must remain a top priority.

Shelter, Water & Health Services Crippled

In 2024 alone, Yemen was hit by seasonal flash floods that worsened the already severe humanitarian situation. Over 34,000 homes were damaged or destroyed, pushing already displaced families into overcrowded and often unsanitary shelters. Many live in makeshift tents or crumbling buildings exposed to the elements, lacking toilets or running water. These poor living conditions create an environment where disease spreads rapidly, and outbreaks of cholera, dengue, and malaria are frequent and deadly. Medical centers, already under-resourced, are unable to cope with the volume of patients. Pregnant women, the elderly, and those with chronic conditions are particularly at risk.

A Toll on Women and Girls

Women and girls face unique and often life-threatening challenges in this crisis. With male family members often killed, missing, or unable to work, women are increasingly heading households, despite having limited access to income or support. Female-headed households represent around 26% of displaced families, and many are living in extreme poverty. Gender-based violence, early and forced marriages, and sexual exploitation are rising. At the same time, maternal care services have collapsed, making childbirth one of the most dangerous moments in a Yemeni woman’s life. Girls also face increased pressure to drop out of school, marry early, or take on domestic burdens that rob them of their childhood.

Al-Qulub Trust works with local partners and charities for Yemen to support women and girls through protective services, shelter, and healthcare access.

Yemen Needs Your Support Urgently

Your donations can help transform despair into hope. Amid so much suffering, every act of generosity becomes a beacon of light. Al‑Qulub Trust works through on-the-ground partnerships and verified aid channels to ensure support reaches those who need it most. We respond flexibly, providing assistance based on the immediate needs of communities, whether it’s access to food, clean water, shelter, hygiene supplies, or medical care.

This crisis cannot be solved overnight, but timely, targeted support saves lives every single day. Your help enables relief workers to reach displaced families in remote areas, distribute emergency supplies, support mobile clinics, and provide dignity in times of deep distress. If you’ve been looking for a Yemen charity that provides direct and meaningful impact, your support through Al-Qulub Trust is a vital step toward restoring hope.

Where Your Impact Matters

A Lifeline in Conflict and Crisis

The teachings of Islam remind us that helping a suffering soul is not only a moral duty but a spiritual opportunity.

As the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: “Whoever removes a worldly grief from a believer, Allah will remove one of the griefs of the Day of Resurrection from him.”

(Sunan al-Tirmidhi)

In Yemen, where grief is present in every family and hardship is daily life, this act of removal becomes sacred. Supporting those in distress, feeding the hungry, aiding the sick, and comforting the displaced is not merely a humanitarian act but an expression of our faith and values. By contributing to our Yemen charity appeal, you become part of this noble mission of mercy and compassion.

What Your Generosity Can Support

  • Emergency food assistance to reduce hunger and prevent famine-related deaths

  • Restoring dignity and preventing waterborne illnesses are facilitated by having access to clean water and sanitary facilities.
  • Vital healthcare support, including mobile clinics and supplies for pregnant women and malnourished children

  • Shelter and protection for displaced families forced to flee their homes due to conflict or flooding

  • Community recovery and rebuilding efforts, responding to changing needs and restoring hope where it’s needed most

By supporting these areas, your donation addresses both immediate survival and long-term resilience and becomes a powerful response to the Yemen humanitarian crisis.

 

Yemen Can’t Wait

Time is of the essence. Each day that passes without adequate humanitarian intervention is another day that children starve, patients go untreated, and families lose hope. Yemen’s people are resilient, but resilience cannot feed a child or repair a broken home. In a country where suffering is widespread and help is scarce, your contribution truly can mean the difference between life and death.

We urge you to act now. Together, we can bring urgent relief and long-lasting impact. Let us not turn away from our brothers and sisters in need. Let us answer their cries with compassion, faith, and action.

Please donate to Yemen today and help change lives.
