YENOF in a Few Words

Yemen Noor Foundation for education and relief (YENOF), previously known as YERO, is a non-governmental organisation that was established in April 2003. It was set up to ensure access to education for children who drop out of school due to poverty.
In 2007, YENOF launched a parallel programme to help the children’s parents achieve self-sufficiency through mothers being included in sewing and embroidery workshops and interest free loans.
The embroidery programme quickly proved to be of great economic and social value. In 2019, it also was recognized for its cultural impact with workshops preserving and raising awareness of Yemen's rich and diverse embroidery and needle work heritage.
