If you want to help, donations to the organizations mentioned in the articles (e.g., the Red Cross and UNICEF) would not be amiss.

 

And donations to LDS Charities are always appropriate.  I can’t tell if they’re active right now in Yemen or not, but they do a lot of good internationally — and with very little overhead.  One of their specialties is the provision of clean water.
