Lebanon is a country in crisis.

Military activity and airstrikes across Lebanon have forced over one million civilians to evacuate their homes. Families are staying in crowded shelters set up in schools and other public buildings, while some have been forced to sleep outdoors due to lack of space. Experts say this is a large-scale displacement crisis, with many homes destroyed.

YES! I’LL GIVE

Our long-standing Baptist Partner in Lebanon is especially important to us. Together, with your generosity, we’ve been serving vulnerable people through their ministries for 10 years. Now they’re counting on us more than ever.

With Lebanon already struggling with the highest refugee population per capita and a severe economic crisis, the country is ill-equipped to cope with the number of people who currently need humanitarian assistance.

Our Baptist Partner is working closely with the local Church to help meet people’s urgent needs.

‘Daily life has been upended as places like schools have turned from institutions of learning into shelters,’ said our Partner.

Your donation will mean our Baptist Partner in Lebanon can provide essentials such as hygiene kits, bedding, food, and mental health support.
