Sana'a: The Wounded Foundation launched today in Sana'a the first phase of producing medical garments and distributing them to hospitals, within the economic empowerment programs for the wounded and their families, implemented by the foundation in partnership with Yemen Mobile Telecommunications Company.
According to Yemen News Agency, during the launch, the Executive Director of the foundation, Ali Al-Dahiani, emphasized the importance of the project in transforming the wounded from recipients of care into producers by developing the sewing workshop affiliated with the Wounded Foundation. He highlighted that the economic empowerment projects and programs carried out by the foundation, with support from Yemen Mobile Company, are part of social responsibility efforts towards those who have sacrificed greatly for the honor and dignity of Yemen.

These supplies will be distributed to beneficiary health facilities, aiding in alleviating burdens and enhancing the quality of care provided to the wounded.
He regarded the launch of the project's first phase as a significant step toward developing the foundation's sewing workshop by equipping it with modern production equipment that enhances its operational capacity, efficiency, and sustainability.
