Our Workshops and Products

In 2013, YENOF began a new initiative to help children of very low-income families access education. It established embroidery workshops to train mothers in making products that would enable them, rather than their children, to supplement their family's income. YENOF has since taught over 500 women and developed a range of products as well as a steady sales' network. So far more than 550 children have benefited with a percentage going through university. In addition to being of great economic and social value, in 2019, YENOF's embroidery program was recognized for its cultural importance with workshops preserving and raising awareness of Yemen's rich and diverse embroidery and needle work heritage.
