ENJOYING THIER BREAKFAST

Dear GlobalGiving Donors and Supporters,

On behalf of the Support Yemeni Society Organization, I would like to extend our profound gratitude for your steadfast commitment to our project, Feeding 1000 Poor Rural School Girls in Yemen."

Your generosity has done far more than provide sustenance; you have planted smiles on the faces of these young girls, restored their sense of hope, and provided them with the foundation to build a brighter future. Even as the summer vacation continues, the SYS team remains active on the ground, ensuring these students remain engaged, supported, and safe.

We are currently in our second month of implementing educational and recreational programs at Al-Najah and Al-Razi schools in the Bani Al-Hareth District. Thanks to your contributions, we are providing the following vital services:

Academic Enrichment: Intensive lessons in reading, writing, and numeracy to ensure the girls return to school with confidence.
Psychosocial Support: Dedicated sessions for both the girls and their families to help them navigate the challenges of their current environment.
Creative Expression: Organized coloring and art activities to encourage self-expression and joy.
Safe Recreation: Guided outdoor excursions and picnics, offering these children a rare and essential opportunity to play and enjoy their childhood in a secure, supportive setting.

Your support is a lifeline for these students, proving that even in the most difficult circumstances, education and childhood can be preserved. Thank you for standing with the girls of Yemen and for being the catalysts for their success.

Voices from the Schools

"Before these sessions, I often felt anxious about the future. Now, the picnics and the coloring activities make me feel like a child again. I realize that I have a right to play and be happy." — Fatima, 5th Grade Student.

"I used to struggle with reading, and I was worried about falling behind when school starts. The strengthening lessons have given me confidence. Now, I’m not just catching up—I’m excited to show my teachers what I’ve learned." — Aisha, 6th Grade Student.

"The picnics are the best part of my summer. It is the only time we get to go out to a safe place where we can just run and laugh without any worries. It makes my heart feel light." — Sumaya, 4th Grade Student.

"Coming to the school for these activities makes me feel like someone cares about us. The psychological support sessions helped me understand that my feelings matter, and I feel much stronger now." — Zainab, 12-year-old Participant.

To ensure this lifeline remains intact, we invite you to continue your journey with us:

Monthly Donation: The most effective way to provide the stability our programs need.

Advocacy: sharing our project with your friends and family helps us reach new partners who value sustainable impact.

SUMMER VACATION ACTIVITIES

A Summer of Smiles: How Your Support Transformed Lives in Yemen

Dear GlobalGiving Donors and Supporters,

As summer vacation unfolds in Yemen, we are thrilled to share the progress and joy your generosity has brought to the students of Al-Najah and Al-Razi schools in the Bani Al-Hareth District.

Because of your steadfast commitment to the "Feeding 1000 Poor Rural School Girls in Yemen" project, the Support Yemeni Society Organization SYS team has been able to look beyond basic nutrition to provide these girls with a holistic, enriching summer experience.

Summer Highlights & Activities

This season, we focused on fostering a sense of community and celebration for the girls:

Outdoor Activities & Picnics: We organized several excursions and outdoor picnics, providing the girls with a much-needed space to play, relax, and enjoy their childhood in a safe environment.
Celebrating Success: We held special events to honor the academic achievements of these hardworking students, boosting their confidence and encouraging their future educational pursuits.
Awareness Programs: Our team conducted specialized sessions designed to empower the girls with essential life skills and health awareness.

Vital Nutritional Support

While celebrating their growth, we remained committed to addressing food insecurity for their families and educators:

Family Food Baskets: Distributed 40 large food parcels to the most vulnerable families of our students.
Teacher Support: Provided 20 food baskets to the dedicated female teachers who serve as the backbone of these rural schools.

A Heartfelt Thank You

Your support does more than just provide a meal; it provides hope, dignity, and a reason to smile. These girls are growing up in challenging circumstances, but through your kindness, they know they are not forgotten.

Thank you for being a vital part of their journey and for your continued trust in our mission.

With deepest gratitude,

A New Year of Hope and Proven Impact

By Ahmed Al-Qadhi | Project Leader

Enjoying Outdoors Activities

Dear Esteemed Supporters,

As we enter 2026, the team at the Support Yemeni Society Organization (SYS) wishes to extend our deepest gratitude for your partnership. This year marks a significant milestone: six years of dedicated collaboration that has fundamentally shifted the trajectory for thousands of young girls across rural Yemen.

Our Outcomes: Six Years of Progress

What began as an initiative to support 1,000 students has evolved into a vital pillar of the community. Your contributions have moved the needle from immediate relief to sustainable development.

Educational Advancement: Thousands of girls have returned to—and remained in—school. Most notably, hundreds of our initial beneficiaries have now transitioned to higher education, pursuing careers as doctors, teachers, and nurses.

Health and Dignity: At partner schools like Al-Najah and Al-Razi, your support has effectively removed the "hunger barrier." By addressing food insecurity, we have empowered families to prioritize long-term education over short-term survival.

Holistic Development: Our mission extends beyond nutrition. We have integrated Psychological Support to build resilience in students facing hardship and launched Creative Initiatives, such as the "Glimmer of Hope" festivals, to foster talent and mental well-being.

Impact Spotlight: January 2026

"Today, I am ranked first in my school... I no longer feel dizzy during classes." — Noor (14), 9th Grade Student. Noor once expected to leave school after 6th grade; today, she is an aspiring software developer aiming to modernize her village through technology.

The Principal of one of our rural partner schools notes: “With the recent reduction in international aid, SYS has become the sole guarantee for keeping our girls in classrooms. The school meal is now the primary incentive for regular attendance.”

The Path Ahead: Sustaining Our Momentum

While we celebrate these successes, 2026 brings new challenges. Global funding shortages have made our local efforts more critical than ever. For many of our students, the meal provided by SYS remains their only consistent source of nutrition.

To ensure this lifeline remains intact, we invite you to continue your journey with us:

Monthly Donation: The most effective way to provide the stability our programs need.

Advocacy: sharing our project with your friends and family helps us reach new partners who value sustainable impact.
