Pomůžu jak můžu, z.s.

To school without hunger

3. 7. 2023

Doa is a fifth-grade student of one the few schools in war-affected Yemen. Doa, along with her five siblings, lives with her uncle. Her parents were killed in bomb attack and her youngest sister lost an eye in an airstrike. Despite all of the aforementioned circumstances, Doa still believes in establishing world peace and in achieving her dream of becoming a doctor. What is more, Doa remains hopeful despite the fact that 5 million children in Yemen are without access to any kind of education. Pomůžu jak můžu has been working in Yemen since 2018 and has been in charge of running a canteen for the poorest people, mostly women, and children. The organization also provides individuals in Yemen with a hot meal every day. Thanks to the donors, the organization can help even further as since the month of September the organization has also been providing snacks for the poorest girls at the Al'Furat school in Sanaa. We know the school, Dou, her classmates, and teachers personally. Join us and help Doa and the other 500 girls at Al'Furat School in Sanaa, Yemen by encouraging them not to give up on their dreams and their hope to attend a school where they won't starve and hopefully one day change the world they live in. A month's worth of snacks for one schoolgirl costs just CZK 100.

Pomůžu jak můžu has been active in Sanaa, Yemen since 2018. Thanks to the help of donors from the Czech Republic, it runs a public canteen where 166 of the poorest people, mostly women and children, receive fresh and hot food on everyday basis. In such an environment, Pomůžu jak můžu provides jobs for 5 people who can then take care of their families with dignity and respect. The on-site project is managed by Sabina Addailami with Czech-Yemeni roots. Administratively the aid is handled by the team in Ostrava in their spare time, without any remuneration for the task they carry out on a regular basis. Apart from struggling with food shortages and lack thereof, more than 5 million of Yemeni children have no access to education (as of 2015). They have neither the means nor the strength to go to school. However, if they do have the opportunity to go to school, they are often at risk of fainting from hunger. To ensure that such conditions may change in the future, in September, the organization implemented the system of providing snacks for 500 girls at the Al'Furat public school in Sanaa.

The war in Yemen has been raging since 2015. According to the UN, it is the world's worst humanitarian disaster since 1945. According to the international organization, 18 million people in Yemen are suffering from hunger. The brief ceasefire of the past six months and an attempt at peace collapsed again in September 2022.

Give hope and education instead of hunger.

Little girls go to school even though are starving and are at risk of fainting from hunger. Let's help them and prevent them from further suffering from hunger. That's the only thing we can change right now- 5 CZK for a snack a day. 100 CZK for a whole month. Are you still hesitating?
