Kuwaiti Hands Mend the Wounds of the Needy in Yemen, Chad, and Sudanese Camps
In line with its moral mission that has spanned decades, the State of Kuwait continues to write new chapters of hope into the lives of thousands of needy individuals, displaced persons, and refugees, by launching a package of distinctive and sustainable projects that go beyond temporary traditional aid to become pillars of development and stability.
These vital initiatives come at a time when the burden of humanitarian crises is intensifying, offering radical solutions in the sectors of health, water, and food security, with the aim of healing the deep wounds of the needy and affected populations in Yemen, Chad, and Sudanese refugee camps.
In this context, Al Salam for Humanitarian and Charitable Works has continued implementing its health projects in Yemen by supporting dialysis centers for kidney failure patients with the necessary medical equipment, thereby enhancing treatment services and alleviating the suffering of patients facing growing health challenges.
The General Manager of the Association, Hamad Al-Awn, told KUNA that the association provided six dialysis machines in the Abyan Governorate within a period of less than 22 days since the project’s announcement.
For its part, Namaa Charity, affiliated with the Al-Isalah Social Association, has continued implementing its relief and development projects in Chad and Sudanese refugee camps through programs covering water, food, and healthcare, as part of its efforts to achieve sustainable humanitarian impact for the most vulnerable groups.
Khalid Al-Shammari, Head of the Programs and Initiatives Sector at Namaa, confirmed that a relief mission lasting 10 days was launched, embodying the association’s message of reaching the needy wherever they are by implementing development and relief projects that addressed the basic needs of Chadian families and Sudanese refugees.
He explained that the association’s team opened four artesian wells and performed more than 200 cataract surgeries during the mission. Additionally, 840 food baskets were distributed, 21 head of livestock were slaughtered, 2,200 cooked meals were prepared, and medical convoys benefited 7,000 people.
He noted that the association continues to implement the “Kheer Yuroo” campaign, aimed at establishing 781 water projects in several countries to benefit approximately 574,000 people.
