YEMEN - SOCIAL PROGRAMS 
Generosity pays dividends
Large donations for social programs and services have won over the Yemeni people and kept a major group profitable during periods of social unrest


How does a major trade institution remain profitable through colonization, decolonization, civil war, social revolutions, partition, and as of late, terrorism? The answer is simpler than most might think – by giving back to the people.
For over 70 years, the Hayel Saeed Anam and Company has made numerous contributions to Yemeni society that, according to the Group, have won over the people.

Yemen has seen its share of turbulent events, in the last hundred years, continually finding its economy and the welfare of the people at stake. However, jobs created jobs by the Saeed Group provided workers with a stable income and pumped life into the economy during difficult periods.

The Group has built a number of schools, mosques, health clinics, water wells, and bridges across different parts of the country.

The commitment to crucial infrastructure and funding for the Yemeni people has demonstrated how private businesses can help stabilize economies and improve the overall well-being of people in both tumultuous and prosperous times.

The Group’s founder, Haj Hayel Saeed Anam, insisted early on that his company should create an association to provide services to the needy, improve education, and build health centers for Yemenis. That association became a reality.

The Sayel Saeed Anam Charity Association supports a variety of different organizations and charities. To name a few, it provides funding for community projects, critical health services, and United Nation’s volunteer programs that help monitor elections.

Furthermore, thanks to funds conferred by the Saeed Charity Association, Yemenis will soon be able to pursue a degree at the Al-Saeed College for Engineering & Technology.
