The situation in Lebanon is dire. Escalating violence by Israel has forced thousands of people in southern Lebanon and the Bekaa region to leave their homes. The lives of over 600 civilians have been lost, more than 1,500 people injured, and over 113,000 people have fled. The number of casualties is rising daily, and the humanitarian crisis is worsening. 

Our long-term partner in Lebanon, Basmeh & Zeitooneh, is committed to providing emergency assistance to the most vulnerable. They provide shelter, food, hygiene kits and essentials to the displaced families who so desperately need it. But they cannot do this alone. 

Your support can save lives. 

Basmeh & Zeitooneh has already reached thousands of people with help, but the needs are enormous.
