Reconstruction in the crisis: We set #LifeSigns
Can you think about reconstruction in a crisis? Yes, you can! - In fact, you have to!
That is why we are setting #LifeSigns for Yemen: Together with the Yemeni society, we invest in the reconstruction of the country!
War has been raging in Yemen for 7 years. The fighting has caused significant damage to vital infrastructure: water and sanitation systems, schools, and health facilities have been destroyed. Consequences of the destruction include malnutrition, disease, and almost complete economic collapse. 20.7 million people urgently need humanitarian aid (2/3 of the population). The UN speaks of the "largest humanitarian disaster in the world."
The situation, therefore, feels hopeless for many people:
Children are among those suffering the most in the crisis. They are the most vulnerable in society, many of them (semi-)orphaned by the war: Malnutrition, diseases, and lack of educational opportunities hit them the hardest. Without schooling, they have no chance to break out of the cycle of poverty later on.
Families are a small economic unit. Often extended families live together and depend on the income of one person. If the male provider of the family dies, it is a catastrophe for the whole family. During the war, many families were displaced, leaving them with no protection, no social network, and no source of income.
Communities: Lack of access to clean water, lack of electricity, as well as no health care and education facilities lead to whole villages living in poverty without seeing a chance to improve their living conditions.
But since April of this year, there has been a ceasefire for the first time in a long time. The people hope for peace. A real chance for reconstruction and that's why we need your support right now to make a #LifeSign in Yemen.
Vision Hope is implementing this 10 million euro reconstruction project with support from BMZ (German Federal Ministry for Economic and Cooperation and Development). This means that 90% of the funding is already in place and only 10% of the money needed needs to be borne by Vision Hope. In other words:
Every donated Euro has thereby a
10-fold effect!
Our goal is to raise 100,000 Euros in donations to make a significant contribution to the people of Yemen.
