URGENT: Help Yemeni families faced with a humanitarian catastrophe

Yemen on the brink of starvation – you can help. [UNHCR - The UN Refugee Agency]( [Yemen on the brink of starvation – you can help.]( You can support Yemeni families facing hunger and despair like Hashara Ahmed Ali's baby Faris Ali Ali, 8 months old, who should weigh 7 kg but at the medical clinic weighs in at 5.5 kg. Dear {NAME}, You may have seen the recent terrible images coming out of Yemen on TV or your newsfeeds. They are scenes from the world’s worst humanitarian crisis, which is entirely man-made. Now that the people of Yemen are seeing for the first time a glimmer of hope for peace, don't let more innocent lives be lost before the New Year. [Please donate now]( Every day, 16 million Yemenis wake up hungry, due to the economic collapse and lack of access caused by the raging conflict. As Lise Grande, UN Humanitarian Coordinator for Yemen said, “65,000 people are barely surviving right now” and nearly 240,000 people are on the brink of famine if they don’t receive humanitarian aid. Behind these almost unimaginable statistics are the lives of ordinary families torn apart by war. [You can help us reach them. Please donate now.]( UNHCR is on the ground, delivering life-saving supplies. But the scale of the crisis is so massive that we simply can’t reach everyone who needs us. We need your support now. You can provide displaced families facing hunger and despair with cash assistance, so they can buy life-saving supplies and cover their most urgent needs, including food, rent and medicine. Thank you, Astrid van Genderen Stort Chief Emergencies and Marketing The UN Refugee Agency P.S. Your support could make a big difference.
