Emergency
Yemen is facing a devastating water crisis, leaving millions without access to safe, clean water — provide water for life in Yemen and help families survive and rebuild with dignity
Since 2015, we have expanded our work to provide clean water across five governorates in Yemen and it is all thanks to your donations.
You also helped us launch our biggest water projects ever in Ma’rib and Aden, which are now providing nearly 3 million people with a lifetime of access to clean water, alhamdulillah, but we can’t stop there. In a country where 15.3 million people in Yemen lack access to safe water and sanitation (UN OCHA 2025) our large-scale water projects, including rainwater harvesting, reservoirs and wells will be a lifeline to the Yemeni people.
The Prophet (saw) said, ‘Indeed, I will surely be at the centre of my Basin pushing back people for the people of Yemen. I will strike away from it with my staff until it pours upon them (i.e. the people of Yemen).’

Population affected:
Over 15 million people in Yemen lack access to safe water and adequate sanitation.
Impact on health:
Lack of clean water is causing widespread outbreaks of waterborne diseases including Cholera, Diarrhoea and Typhoid.
How you've helped:
3.5 million people are receiving clean water through 26 water projects across Yemen
We’ve delivered lifelong access to clean water for nearly 3 million people in Ma’rib and Aden through our mega water projects. With so many Yemenis still in urgent need, your support helps us reach more families with life-saving clean water.
Our bread factories in Yemen provide a daily lifeline to families suffering from hunger. Producing over 50,000 loaves of fresh bread each day, they feed orphans, children with disabilities and displaced families who would otherwise go without.
Through clinics, mobile health units and nutrition programmes, we treat malnourished children, provide specialised care for mothers and deliver primary healtcare to vulnerable families.
