About Yemen

Yemen is experiencing the world's largest humanitarian crisis, with over 21.6 million people — two-thirds of the entire population — needing assistance. Years of conflict have destroyed infrastructure, collapsed the healthcare system, and pushed millions to the brink of famine. Only half of health facilities remain functional, and those that operate face chronic shortages of medicine and equipment. Over 17.4 million Yemenis are food insecure, with 5 million at emergency levels. Children bear the heaviest burden — 11.3 million need humanitarian assistance, and malnutrition rates are among the highest in the world. Clean water is scarce, with damaged water infrastructure leaving millions dependent on unsafe sources. Cholera and other waterborne diseases remain constant threats. The economic collapse has left millions without income, unable to afford even basic food items at inflated market prices. Our local Yemeni partners have maintained operations throughout the crisis, delivering food packs, clean water, and emergency supplies to the most vulnerable communities.

Delivery Method: We work with experienced local Yemeni partners who can navigate the complex operating environment to reach vulnerable communities.

Why This Matters

A Ramadan food pack provides a complete month's supply of essential staples for an entire family. Each pack is carefully assembled to include culturally appropriate foods that sustain a family of 5-7 people throughout the blessed month.

What's Inside a Food Pack

  • Rice (10kg) — the staple carbohydrate
  • Flour (10kg) — for bread and chapatis
  • Cooking oil (5 litres)
  • Lentils and beans (5kg)
  • Sugar (2kg) and tea
  • Dates — for breaking the fast
  • Salt, spices, and tomato paste

Contents are adjusted by region to match local dietary needs. Packs in South Asia include different items than those in East Africa. Every pack is delivered Hand2Hand with photographic proof.

The Ripple Effect

When a family receives a food pack, the mother no longer needs to choose between feeding her children and paying for medicine. Children can focus on their studies rather than going hungry. The entire household can observe Ramadan with dignity.

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever feeds a fasting person will have a reward like that of the fasting person, without any reduction in his reward." (Tirmidhi)

My children were malnourished. The food packs you sent saved their lives.
