Donate to our Yemen appeal
for children in Crisis
in Yemen
What is happening in Yemen?
Yemen is facing one of world’s worst emergencies and over 9.8 million children need your help. The ongoing conflict has left children and families in urgent need of food, water and medical supplies. Currently, 4.5 million people are internally displaced and hundreds of thousands of Yemeni children are growing up in unsafe conditions.
Any outbreak of diseases will place an even greater demand on medical staff and already scarce hospital resources such as gloves, soap and ventilators.
18.2 million people in Yemen require urgent support
After almost a decade of conflict, Yemen and its health system have been pushed to the brink of collapse. Millions of children lack access to clean water and sanitation facilities and are in desperate need of basic healthcare. Malnutrition is also at an all-time high.
504,000 severely malnourished children are projected to be at a risk of death this year.
The lack of a comprehensive political resolution to the country’s conflict, amid the deteriorating economic situation, means that the needs of children and their families continue to increase
We must act now to protect Yemen’s children from the dangers of war, disease and hunger.
How to donate to Yemen
Your donation to our Yemen appeal will make a difference in the lives of children in Yemen forever.
You can help heal a child suffering from malnutrition for just £10 a month with life-saving therapeutic food for a week.
Alternatively, you can help a classroom of 37 children in Yemen reach their potential with exercise books for just £15 a month.
Can I make a one-off donation?
If you prefer to make a single one-off donation, this option is available on the donation form above, or over the phone. For £39, you can help provide 260 children with a single dose of oral Polio vaccine.
How will my donation help children?
We are working around the clock to protect children in Yemen.
With the help of supporters like you, we are working hard to:
- Help 2.5 million children and women access primary health care.
- Ensure 6 million women and children access gender-based violence support.
- Reach 3.6 million people with critical safe drinking water and sanitation supplies.
However, we simply don’t have enough funds to reach every child in danger. We need your help to provide essential life-saving supplies for the children who need it the most.
Your support will also ensure that displaced children do not miss out on an education. Through UNICEF-supported schools and child-friendly spaces, children can continue their schooling and receive psychosocial care and support to help them cope with distress and trauma.
Donating by phone
If you’re in the UK and would prefer to make a donation by phone, you can call our dedicated donation line: 0300 330 5699.
For the first 6 months, monthly donations made to this appeal will go towards funding our work to support children affected by the Yemen conflict. After that, donations will go to support our work around the world.
