Water Aid For Yemen

Currently, more than half the population of Yemen – some 19.3 million people – are struggling to find clean drinking water.

Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: “The best charity is giving water to drink” and he was the most generous in giving charity. (as narrated in Ahmad).

Unclean Water in Yemen

In Yemen, drought and unclean water are two of the biggest issues people are facing on a daily basis. Because of water scarcity and the lack of rain in the past few years, we have taken it upon ourselves to help the worst-hit villages. At Saba Relief, we believe that clean water is one of the first steps to overcoming poverty and sickness. Therefore, we aim to provide clean drinking water to as many poor and needy families in Yemen as possible.

19.3M People are Struggling

Currently, more than half the population of Yemen – some 19.3 million people – are struggling to find clean drinking water. Already being one of the most water-scarce countries in the world, ongoing conflict and poverty has only resulted in further damage to water systems throughout Yemen.

It is a basic human right, acknowledged by the UN, to have access to clean water and sanitation: something that is essential to the realisation of other human rights. Water is necessary for any and all life to survive – and a lack of which, results in severe illness and death. When living in suitable living conditions, it is hard to imagine a life without basic necessities, but that’s the reality of the Yemeni population today.
