Hope Is Running Out: and Yemen Is Not Ready

A Nation on the Edge
After nearly a decade of war, Yemen remains one of the world's most devastating humanitarian crises.Entire communities are starving, families are displaced again and again, and children grow up without schools, clean water, or healthcare.
Every day, parents face impossible choices, to feed their children or to buy medicine, to rebuild their homes or find water to drink.In Yemen, survival has become the only dream left.
Yemen's Humanitarian Crisis in Numbers: November 2025
- 🍞 17 million people are food insecure, struggling to find their next meal.
- 💧 17.8 million lack safe water and sanitation, diseases spread faster than treatment can reach.
- 🏚 4.5 million people displaced, many living in fragile shelters or tents.
- 🩺 Only half of health facilities still function, leaving millions without care.
Each number tells a story of resilience, and a call for action.
Our Mission: Restore Hope
UMMA Foundation is launching a multi-sector humanitarian response to reach Yemen's most vulnerable communities.Our mission is simple: to save lives and restore dignity through food, clean water, healthcare, and shelter.
Together with our local partners, we deliver rapid, transparent aid directly to families, where it's needed most.
Your Support Helps Provide:
- 🍚 Food Parcels and Hot Meals – nourishing families trapped in hunger.
- 💧 Clean Water Access – delivering safe water to displacement camps.
- 🧣 Shelter & Winter Relief – protecting displaced families from the cold.
Every donation is a lifeline, a chance for Yemen to breathe again.
Why Give Now
The crisis in Yemen deepens with every passing day.Food prices have tripled, clean water is scarce, and hospitals are collapsing under the weight of disease and malnutrition.
Children are paying the highest price, their future fading with every day of hunger and thirst.
This is our chance to act while there is still time.
Yemen
What Is Happening
A decade of war has left Yemen with a broken economy, a health system running on almost nothing, and millions of people who cannot afford the food that is on the shelves. It is one of the longest emergencies in the world and one of the least reported.
What UMMA Is Doing
We deliver food parcels and fund the medical care people would not otherwise get, working through teams who live in the communities they serve. Your donation pays for supplies and for the treatment behind them.
Common Questions
Is my donation secure?
Card details go to Stripe and never reach our servers. We see the amount, the campaign and the receipt address, nothing else.
Are my donations tax deductible?
Yes, to the extent allowed by law. You receive a receipt for every donation, and all of them are in My Donations, in the UMMA app or your dashboard on the web.
Can I give my Zakat to UMMA?
Yes, and only to campaigns marked Zakat eligible. Zakat is restricted to the categories in Surah At Tawbah (9:60), so UMMA will not let it be applied anywhere else. If no eligible campaign is open, we say so rather than route it elsewhere.
How do you decide where donations go?
Donations go to the campaign you choose, and that campaign shows its own progress. If you donate without choosing one, funds go where the need is greatest at that moment.
Can I cancel a recurring donation?
Yes, at any time, in My Donations in the UMMA app or on the web. No email and no phone call. Gave without an account? The link in your receipt email cancels it.
Something went wrong with my donation. Who do I tell?
Email hello@ummafoundation.org with the receipt number and a person replies. Refunds follow the refund policy on this site.
What happens if this campaign does not reach its goal?
The work carries on with what was raised. Donations are not held back waiting for a total and they are not moved to another campaign: they go to this one, and the progress bar shows exactly where it stands.
What happens if it raises more than its goal?
It keeps accepting donations and the extra goes to the same work. A goal is what we planned for, not a cap on the need, and a campaign that has passed its goal is still the campaign you chose.
