In Times of Crisis
The ongoing escalation in hostilities in Lebanon, following the war in Gaza that began in October 2023, has led to a significant humanitarian crisis. More than one thousand individuals have been killed, including children and women. According to the national authorities, more than one million people have been displaced in Lebanon in addition to the nearly 112,000 uprooted since October 2023. Around 346,209 individuals are seeking refuge across around 711 collective shelters nationwide or in host settings. Northern regions, particularly Akkar and North Lebanon, have been particularly affected, hosting 37% in collective shelters in North Lebanon and 18% in Akkar.
Beirut Emergency Relief
On August 4, 2020 a huge explosion rocked Beirut, Lebanon’s capital, crushing the port and the entire surrounding residential and commercial neighborhoods on top of its inhabitants, causing widespread casualties and material damage. 190 people are dead, more than 6,500 are wounded, and 3 innocent souls are still missing under the rubble. Over 300,000 left displaced and homeless, with billions of dollars in damage.
This tragedy, in conjunction with the dire economic crisis (over 50% of the population under the line of poverty) and the COVID-19 pandemic still wildly spreading, has driven the René Moawad Foundation to lead a much-needed emergency response initiative. Our interventions aim at alleviating pain and enabling aid on many fronts.
Social Support
With over 50% of our people now living under the poverty line, we are launching a crisis-response program to help alleviate some of the suffering being endured by our people. We have chosen 3 most vulnerable regions to operate within: South, Bekaa and North. With your help we will be able to distribute food boxes to the most impoverished communities in Akkar, Dunniyeh, Tripoli, Batroun, Zgharta al Zawiyah, Beshari, Koura, Zahleh, West Bekaa, Saida/al Zahrani and Jezzine. Food boxes range in cost between $40 and $100 (or equivalent in Lebanese Lira) depending on the size and situation of the family/beneficiary.
