Saudi Arabia’s aid agency KSrelief has carried out a wide range of humanitarian programmes across Cameroon, Gaza, Yemen, Afghanistan and Sudan, focusing on healthcare support and food assistance for vulnerable communities.
In Cameroon, KSrelief implemented its Noor program to fight blindness and eye diseases in Yaounde. In just one week, volunteer doctors and nurses treated 4,679 people, provided 926 pairs of glasses, and carried out 448 eye surgeries. The programme worked to better eye care and reduce vision problems that could be prevented in the region.

It also handed out 1,422 food baskets in Deir Al-Balah and Al-Qarara in Khan Younis, reaching more than 22,000 people in need.
Many beneficiaries expressed gratitude, saying the aid helped them meet basic needs during difficult conditions.
