Yemen
in focus

With over 24 million in need of aid, Yemen is the world's single largest humanitarian crisis. Our team on the ground is working tirelessly to provide food, clean water, and essential household items as well as support health structures and improving the living conditions within Yemeni prisons. In 2018, we have reached more than two million people with basic aid. But so much more is needed.
