EQUIP LEBANON'S FIRST RESPONDERS

Solidarity with Lebanon

EQUIP LEBANON'S FIRST RESPONDERS
We are fundraising to equip Lebanon’s national first responders - The Civil Defense (الدفاع المدني) with essential and life-saving supplies. For a year now, Israel has steadily intensified its air strikes and bombardment of communities in South Lebanon, the Bekaa, and Beirut. We are living through yet another war. Entire families are being killed and children are being left under the rubble for hours. Lebanon’s national first responders are relentless in their commitment to saving lives and attending to the wounded in the aftermath of these attacks. A huge number of them are volunteers. Amidst this war, Lebanon is still crippled by a long-term economic crisis - which means that our first responders have been left with minimal resources: they are missing personal protective equipment, fuel, medical supplies and they can't afford to maintain their most essential rescue equipment. Decades of chronic underfunding by the government means that the Civil Defense’s vehicles and centers are worn out, and - in the worst scenarios place our first responders at risk while they work to save lives **What will this campaign do?** Your donations will be used to purchase equipment and meet the urgent needs of 3 civil defense units: the Civil Defence Units of Bachoura & Ras Beirut (Beirut) and the Civil Defense Unit of Sour (Tyre). One of the critical needs of the Civil Defense Unit in Tyre is a a 4x4 car to be able to reach people buried under the rubble. Our last campaign (https://fundahope.com/en/campaigns/support-the-lebanese-civil-defense) allowed us to: - Purchase two fire fighting suits and five masks with filters for a station in Hasbaya, which is a major town southeast of the country. - Support a civil defense unit in central Beirut to refurbish a “donated” ambulance. We added a first aid kit, a board, a scoop (which is the carrier that rolls down and up into the ambulance), a chair, and an inflatable “mattress” that they use to inflate for the wounded with fractures (The inflatable mattress helps keep the wounded in place on their way to the ER) **Why the urgency?** The war we are bearing witness to (from Palestine to Lebanon) has taken an unprecedented toll on civilians: As of September 2024, more than 800 have been killed, thousands have been left injured, and hundreds of thousands are being displaced from their homes. Israel is destroying our communities, and the occupation forces are ensuring their destruction has long-lasting effects: deliberately using white phosphorus bombs to destroy orchards, natural habitats, and olive groves. More than 630 hectares of agricultural land and natural habitats have been burned to date. Despite the continued challenges, the Civil Defense are committed to doing all they can to respond to the crises impacting our communities on a daily basis. By supporting the Civil Defense, you’re ensuring that their ambulances and fire trucks can rush to the scenes of emergencies and attacks. **What does the civil defense do?** When the worst calamities have hit Lebanon, there are a few heroes we can always rely on. The Lebanese Civil Defense are among those heroes. Right after the Beirut Port Blast of August 4, 2020, they were among the first responders on the scene risking their lives, in spite of the blast’s magnitude and its aftermath. Their work continues daily. At the time of writing (September 24), the General Directorate of Civil Defense reported that its various stations had carried out more than 98 rescue and relief missions in the past 24 hours alone: - 70 Fire Extinguishing - 8 rescue missions - 24 First Aid These types of missions are a standard part of the Civil Defense’s daily work. It is common for first responders to spend several days in a row on a mission away from their homes and families. And it often happens with working with minimal resources and support. The Lebanese Civil Defense has 208 centers across the country. Civil Defense duties include disaster response, providing emergency first aid, ambulance services, evacuating civilians in the event of crises, enforcing public safety, and putting out fires. Volunteers are on call round the clock, seven days a week and you can reach them by dialing 125 from any phone in Lebanon. Your generosity (even by just spreading the word!) will remind our first responders that they are not alone. As the aggression continues we also want to reflect on the work that continues to give our communities hope and keeps us working in solidarity with one another towards a better future. **Who is managing this campaign?** This campaign is managed by a group of concerned residents who are long-time grassroots organizers in Beirut. We are compelled to try and support the Civil Defense in the face of economic, political, and military aggression. **How can we send the donation?** If you are in Beirut, one of the campaign managers can meet you wherever it is convenient. WISH Money transfers are also an option. You can send your WHISH Money transfers to: + Rami Rajeh (03428066), + Bana Bashour (03059327), or + Yusra Bitar (70-459066) **How will the Civil Defense receive my donation?** Your donation will be directly transferred to a volunteer procurement team on the ground who will purchase the equipment and hand them directly to the Civil Defense centers. How many first responders and firefighters will you equip? Our initial aim is to purchase essential equipment for at least three centers distributed across Lebanon, which will equip more than 100 Civil Defense volunteers with the appropriate gear and supplies. **How can we make sure the donations actually reach the Civil Defense?** The whole operation will be managed through transparent procurement procedures, where all receipts and invoices are documented and shared with donors. Every piece of equipment has the power to rescue and protect lives. We are filled with gratitude for the courage of our Civil Defense volunteers and for the solidarity of people like you around the world who made much of their work possible.

Nahwal Watan
It all started on 17 October 2019. The Lebanese protested all over the country and the world demanding change. Total Change. They demanded to replace this corrupt criminal political class with a new one – clean, competent and independent. Now is the time to start this change by getting a sizeable block of 20-25 MPs into Parliament from the Change Forces (قوى التغيير). This is not an unachievable dream. All surveys and polls confirm it. Change Forces are working hard to form electoral coalitions among them on regional levels (several have been announced) leading into one national electoral collation of ONLY Change Forces. CHANGE IS WITHIN REACH Nahwal Watan has been providing support to the change movement. It started since November 2020 to build a highly professional and elaborate electoral machine for the candidates that will emerge from the Change Forces and independents all over the country.

Ayadina's Weekly Soup Kitchen initiative
Ayadina's Weekly Soup Kitchen initiative
In the heart of Lebanon's ongoing economic crisis, Ayadina Association continues to stand as a beacon of hope, particularly for our beloved senior citizens. In response to the persistent economic hardship, we are continuing our SOUP KITCHEN initiative for the elderly. Every week, we open our doors to around 80 seniors, offering them a warm, wholesome meal to take away. For many, these meals aren't just sustenance; they're a lifeline, supporting not only the elderly but also their families who rely on these provisions to survive. One of our cherished seniors, now unable to leave her home, shares her gratitude: "Ayadina's center was like my second home, where I spent many cherished years. Though I can't visit anymore, the meals brought to me by a friend are a reminder of the warmth and care Ayadina provides. The quality of the food is exceptional, a testament to the generosity and dedication of Ayadina's team." Ayadina Association, nestled in the heart of Nabaa, Beirut's impoverished neighborhood, was born from one woman's vision to uplift her community. Maya Najjar, our Founder and President, started with a single-handed effort, offering aid to those in need. Today, Ayadina stands as a socio-cultural NGO, providing seniors not just with meals, but with a sense of belonging and a space to socialize. We firmly believe that by changing one person's life, we create a ripple effect that nourishes the entire community. Through Ayadina, hope flows freely, touching every corner of our neighborhood. Over 80 seniors now call Ayadina their second home, a testament to the inclusive and compassionate environment we strive to create. Regardless of background or circumstance, Ayadina welcomes all, supporting both local residents and refugee communities alike. But we can't do this alone. We need your support to continue our mission of providing comfort and sustenance to those who need it most. Your donation, no matter how small, can make a world of difference to a senior citizen in need. Together, let's ensure that no one in our community feels forgotten. Donate today to Ayadina's Soup Kitchen initiative and help us continue serving our beloved senior citizens with dignity and compassion. Thank you for your generosity and support.

In support of the Anti Racism Movement
In support of the Anti Racism Movement
About ARM Anti-Racism Movement (ARM) organizes alongside migrant workers, including women domestic workers, living and working under the oppressive Kafala system. We work with migrant-led collectives to support their community organizing, collective action, self-advocacy and activism against systemic racism and injustice. ARM’ main pillars of work include community building through our Migrant Community Center (MCC); working on advocacy, research, campaigning, supporting grassroots initiative building; and through offering legal counseling and casework. Current Context ARM has been dealing with various layers of crisis over the past year as a result of the ongoing Israeli Genocide in Palestine, with a slow escalation of aggressions in Lebanon, causing displacement and death over the past year. On the 23rd of September, starting with an Israeli attack that exploded communication devices across multiple regions in the country, we have been seeing unprecedented escalation. This has expanded into daily raids across the country including in Beirut, killing hundreds of people and injuring thousands more. Mass displacement from the South of Lebanon is causing chaos and overwhelming most available services. We’re already hearing stories of migrant workers in need of shelter, food, transportation and evacuation support. Expected Challenges and Emergency Response For migrant communities, an already extremely precarious status in the country is now much more worrying due to the obvious racism in national response plans which often completely ignore the existence of migrant workers altogether, do not account for the barriers to access in mainstream humanitarian responses or offer any protection mechanisms. Expected challenges for the coming period, based on learnings from previous crises include eviction threats, lack of access to information, abandonment and increased violence from employers, and challenges in finding inclusive shelters. ARM is already seeing an increased demand on our casework services, a dire need for advocacy and campaigning to push for the inclusion of migrant workers in response plans, and varying needs from our community center members that will require us to adjust our every day work and response mechanisms. Supporting ARM’s work is now more crucial than ever. You can read more about ARM’s story and values below, and you can check out the highlights of our work over the past year by reading our 2023 Annual Report here: https://armlebanon.org/annual-report-2023/ Our Story ARM was launched in 2010 as a grassroots collective by young Lebanese feminist activists in collaboration with migrant workers and migrant domestic workers following a racist incident at one of Beirut’s most well-known private beach resorts. ARM activists, using a hidden camera, filmed the administration’s blatant acts of discrimination and segregation. Interest grew in this small volunteer-based movement, members increased, and our interventions grew in scope and scale. Later this year, ARM opened its first MCC and soon after, in 2012, registered officially as an NGO in Lebanon, with a growing staff team in order to increase its capacity to carry out wider operations to fight racist discrimination, abuse and exploitation in Lebanon. ARM works to achieve social, economic and gender justice for all migrant workers and racialized groups in Lebanon. We recognize the significance of self-organizing and actively support Migrant Domestic Worker leadership in rights activism. A primary focus of ARM is women migrant domestic workers living and working under the oppressive Kafala System, which is used to recruit and hire foreign labor in Lebanon, Jordan and the Gulf states. Our Values We adopt a feminist ethics of care in our work, where we value attentiveness, responsibility, responsiveness, and compassion. We also privilege the voices of migrant workers in every aspect of our work. We use a social justice framework as the basis for our approach, upholding fundamental human rights for everyone in our communities. We value the expression and practice of solidarity among all marginalized communities as a necessary alliance against oppressive and unjust systems. We view our everyday work as political and always seek to address the larger social, economic, cultural and policy structures that enable discrimination, abuse, and rights violations. We value the importance of building safe and strong communities that sustain the activism and offer supportive social networks for migrants and their allies.
