Income generation projects were also launched for the beneficiaries so that they could lead happy lives with their spouses.

The project, 'Farhat w Nama” (happiness and development), was implemented in four cities of Yemen in collaboration with Jusur Foundation for Development Solution, RAF";s partner. The project was financed by the endowment fund of Sheikh Thani bin Abdullah Al Thani.
