Mohammed Ahmed Taleb traveled from Kuwait to Yemen for school. While he was in the capital, Sana’a, he was haunted by some of the sights he saw, including orphans and people in need eating from piles of garbage. The suffering he witnessed prompted him to launch the “Mail for Good” initiative.

“Mail for Good” is a volunteer student project, which has been welcomed by the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine at Sana’a University, as well as many department heads, professors and students. The projects seeks to support 150 orphans and 35 families in need in Sana’a by providing them with monthly food packages, and covering rent, as well as  basic monthly expenses to help meet their needs.

At the same time, Taleb launched the “Benefit” project, which is a business project that families can use to earn a living. He also launched another project dedicated to helping patients receive medicine, and coordinating surgeries for those in need.

The project committees consist of 70 volunteers, many of whom are med students, who organize the company’s work, collect important documents and receipts, and work closely with the distribution committee.

When put together, these volunteer projects help improve the lives of dozens of Yemeni families, and make a positive impact in society.
