Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Being completely aware of everything the world is going through, including the global pandemic and the recent protests across the world in solidarity with the Black Lives matter movement, which requires constant attention everyday, let us not forget the people of Yemen. With the Yemen conflict entering its fourth year with no end in sight, the Yemeni people are struggling to survive a terrible famine, armed conflict and outbreaks of disease like cholera.
The United Nations describes the Yemen crisis as “the worst famine the world has seen in 100 years”.
This humanitarian catastrophe extends beyond food and illness; the internal conflict has led to a freeze of salaries, soaring of fuel prices, and doctors who can't afford to go to the hospital to treat the citizens.
With all this alongside continued attacks, outbreaks of cholera and severe malnutrition, the people of Yemen are in urgent need of healthcare and medicine.
- 2M people are displaced.
- 14.8M people have no access to health care services.
- 462,000 children are suffering from severe acute malnutrition.
- Out of a population of 28M, 22M need humanitarian assistance.
