Attachments

As part of the Provision of Health and Nutrition Life-Saving Assistance to Vulnerable Communities in Dhamar City project, supported by the Yemen Humanitarian Fund (YHF) and implemented by Building Foundation for Development (BFD), integrated health and nutrition services at 22-May Health Unit continue to demonstrate tangible life-saving impact on the most vulnerable households. In Dhamar City, where vulnerable families continue to face significant barriers to accessing essential health and nutrition services, the support provided through the Yemen Humanitarian Fund (YHF) and implemented by Building Foundation for Development (BFD), has made a life-changing difference for many children. One such case is that of Jannat Shehab Abdullah Ali, a sevenmonth-old baby girl from Al-Sharifa neighborhood, whose recovery reflects the impact of timely, integrated health and nutrition interventions.
