Khair Restaurants during the holy month of Ramadan

Since their creation back in 2018, the Khair Restaurants have continued to feed thousands of Yemenis.

The distribution of meals is particularly taking place during this period of Ramadan, the holy month of the Muslims where everyone fasts during the day and feeds when the sun is down. During this very important period, the daily diet is concentrated around two main meals: “Sahour” and “Fatour”.

This year, thanks to the donations received from donors and partners, the Khair Restaurants are able to distribute meals with vegetables, bread and meat to 1 400 families per day.

This initiative therefore brings hope and love during this holy month of Ramadan, and enables the population to continue this important tradition despite the war.

 

We also had visits from several media, including one of the most important television channels in the ‘Arab world’!

 

 

This special celebration was more than just raising a cup; it was a journey of discovery, tracing the story that begins with a tiny bean nurtured in fertile mountain soil and ends with a cup that carries joy, inspiration, and community.

 

Under the theme “The Magical Journey… From Bean to Cup,” the event highlighted coffee as a global symbol of unity — a bridge connecting cultures, stories, and people across continents.

 

Each coffee bean represents dedication, craftsmanship, and passion — from the farmer’s care to the barista’s artistry.

 

One of the event’s most memorable moments was the engaging presence of barista and coffee expert Ammar Al-Ahlasi, who filled the room with enthusiasm and the irresistible aroma of freshly brewed coffee.

 

He came not just to serve coffee, but to share knowledge and unveil the secrets behind this enchanting beverage.

 

Ammar emphasized that brewing coffee is both an art and a ritual — from choosing the right grind size to controlling the water temperature and mastering the pouring technique. Every detail matters.

 

Each drop of water that touches the ground extracts not just flavor, but also a story, a feeling, and a sense of connection — creating a cup that nourishes the soul as much as the senses.

 

In closing, the Y30closing, the Y30 Association, in collaboration with the Y30 Institute, affirmed that this event was more than just a celebration — it was a heartfelt tribute to the timeless values that coffee embodies: dedication, creativity, and human connection.

 

Every cup tells a journey — from the earth to the heart — reminding us that coffee is not merely a beverage, but a way of life.
