For each other - نحنا لبعضنا maginifier
After spending more than $17,000 in humanitarian assistance and supporting over 500 families affected by the crisis, Man wa Salwa is launching this campaign once again to continue standing alongside those in need. As Lebanon continues to face economic hardship, displacement, and growing humanitarian challenges, thousands of families remain unable to secure their most basic necessities. In response, Man wa Salwa, a Lebanese NGO officially registered under No. 2100 at the Ministry of Interior, is expanding its relief efforts to reach the most vulnerable communities. Since 2023, Man wa Salwa has operated a consumer cooperative in Furn El Chebbak, Beirut, dedicated to providing affordable essential goods while strengthening local solidarity and supporting Lebanese producers. Through this initiative, we have built a community network of more than 450 families. Today, the needs are greater than ever. Families displaced by conflict and economic hardship are living in shelters, schools, temporary housing, and overcrowded conditions across Lebanon. Through this campaign, we aim to: • Provide food parcels and essential household supplies • Support displaced and vulnerable families across Lebanon • Strengthen community-led relief efforts and local solidarity networks • Ensure that every donation is used directly to purchase and distribute essential goods We call on our friends, supporters, and especially members of the Lebanese diaspora to stand with us during this critical time. Every contribution, regardless of its size, can help provide food, dignity, and hope to a family facing hardship. Together, we can make sure that no one is left behind. Photo credit: Cendrella Azar

Lost everything because of war

Solidarity with Lebanon

Lost everything because of war
My name is Ahmad, and I am a digital freelancer from Lebanon who relies entirely on the internet to survive and earn an income online. Not long ago, I had a stable life, a safe home, and a clear vision for my future. In a heartbeat, the devastating reality of war took all of that away, completely destroying the life and the dreams I had spent years working so hard to build. ​The main photo on this campaign page shows the literal ruins of my independent livelihood: my completely destroyed computer setup and workspace. I managed to quickly take this heartbreaking photograph during the brief ceasefire a month ago, just to capture the physical loss of the tools that connected me to the world. Today, due to the ongoing volatility and displacement, I am blocked from returning. I am forced to live with the agonizing reality that I do not even know if the house itself is still standing anymore. ​Losing a home is not just about losing four walls; it is about losing your sanctuary, your mental peace, and your sense of safety. The war has uprooted my life, scattered my focus, and tried to force me into paths and choices that compromise my well-being and my future. ​But while the crisis took everything physical from me, I refuse to let it destroy my drive, my skills, or my right to a peaceful life. ​I am determined to stand my ground and rebuild my digital workflow right here from scratch. Because my career is entirely online, securing a basic mobile workstation is my only ticket to regaining financial independence, earning a living, and ultimately transitioning out of this crisis into a safe, stable environment where I can finally breathe and thrive again. Money will be used for shelter, hardware and setup, power and connectivity. Every single donation, no matter how small, is a brick in the foundation of my new beginning. You aren't just helping me survive a crisis; you are actively giving a young professional the means to fight for their future and prove that our dreams cannot be permanently destroyed by war. ​From the bottom of my heart, thank you for standing with me, believing in my resilience, and showing solidarity.

Please Help Us Survive & Rebuild Our Lives🙏💔

Please Help Us Survive & Rebuild Our Lives🙏💔
⚠️Urgent Fundraiser – Please Help Us Survive🙏💔 Dear Kind Souls, My name is Jean Hatoum. Until a few months ago, my family had a simple life in Debel, a village in south Lebanon near border. Today, everything we had is gone. On February 28, 2026, when the war in Lebanon escalated again, our home was bombed for the second time. We had already rebuilt our house after the war in 2024, believing we could start over. This time, we lost everything again — our home, our belongings, and the life we spent years rebuilding. The bombing also took the life of my father. He died on March 1, 2026. In fear and shock, my mother, my brother David, and I fled our village with nothing but the clothes we were wearing. On the road to Beirut, tragedy struck again. My mother suffered a heart attack. We rushed her to a hospital in Tyre, South Lebanon. By God’s mercy she survived, but we had to continue our journey with nothing. We slept outside, under trees, not knowing where to go, until a kind stranger offered to take us to Beirut. But even the journey was not safe. When we arrived near Haret Hreik in Beirut, another building was bombed close to us, we didn’t know that a warning was sent to that area to be evicted. My brother was injured in the explosion. With the help of the Lebanese Red Cross, we were taken to Abou Jaoude Hospital, in Jal Dib on March 2, 2026. As I write this: We have no home, no belongings, no savings, no stability, and no idea where we will sleep tomorrow. Medical bills are already piling up. Medications, and care that we simply cannot afford. We also need, basic necessities, and medicine for our family. Before this war began, I was already struggling with severe personal and health challenges and had started a fundraiser to try to begin my own treatment, link to my fundraising is: https://fundahope.com/en/campaigns/from-panic-to-collapse-trying-to-survive. Now everything has collapsed on top of us at once. We are not asking for comfort. We are only asking for a chance to survive. Our goal is $10,000. This amount will help us: • Pay hospital bills • Buy medications, and see doctors. • Find a small apartment since we are unable to go back home. • Cover basic daily needs while we try to rebuild our lives and find jobs This fundraiser will remain open for end of June. After that, depending on our situation, we will see if we can extend it. Even $5 or $10 can make a difference for us right now. We know thousands of families are suffering in these difficult days. We are only one family among many. But today, we are standing at the edge of survival, praying that kind hearts will help us stand again.

إنّ من ينام في الشارع اليوم هم أهلُنا وإخوتُنا. فلا تُدر وجهك عنهم، فقد يأتي يوم تحتاج فيه إلى قلبٍ يرحمك كما ترحمهم. الإنسان أخو الإنسان، والرحمة طريق الله بين الناس. اللي عم يصير بالحرب خلّى عائلات كتير تطلع من بيوتها فجأة، بلا مصاري، بلا تياب، وبلا أبسط مقومات الحياة. وبهالوقت الصعب، أقل شي فينا نعمله إنو نوقف حدّ بعض. فرشة وحدة بتفرق. حرام واحد بيدفّي طفل. ودولار واحد ممكن يكون سبب راحة وأمان لعيلة كاملة. الحرب بعدا مستمرة، والتهجير والقتل ما وقفوا. أهلنا مشرّدين وتعبانين وبحاجة لحدا يسندن. خلّونا نكون سند إلهم. خلّونا نكون إيد وحدة، ونأمّن مأوى آمن وكريم للعائلات، خاصةً اللي عم تنام بالطرقات. ما حدا لازم ينام برّا. نتمنى من الجميع المساعدة قدر المستطاع. أي مساهمة، مهما كانت صغيرة، بتعمل فرق كبير. خلّونا نكون حدّ بعض. Those sleeping in the streets today are our families and our brothers and sisters. Do not turn your face away from them, for one day you may need a compassionate heart just as they need yours today. Humanity binds us together, and mercy is God’s path among people. What is happening because of the war has forced many families to leave their homes suddenly, without money, clothes, or even the most basic necessities. In times like these, the least we can do is stand by one another. One mattress can make a difference. One blanket can keep a child warm. One dollar can bring comfort and safety to an entire family. The war is still ongoing, and displacement and suffering have not stopped. Our people are exhausted, displaced, and in need of support. Let us be there for them. Let us stand together and provide safe and dignified shelter for these families, especially those sleeping in the streets. No one should have to sleep outside. We ask everyone to help however they can. Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a real difference. Let us stand by one another. Ceux qui dorment aujourd’hui dans la rue sont nos familles, nos frères et nos sœurs. Ne leur tournez pas le dos, car un jour vous pourriez avoir besoin d’un cœur compatissant, tout comme eux aujourd’hui. L’humanité nous unit, et la miséricorde est le chemin de Dieu parmi les hommes. La guerre a forcé de nombreuses familles à quitter soudainement leurs maisons, sans argent, sans vêtements et sans même les besoins les plus essentiels. Dans des moments aussi difficiles, le moins que nous puissions faire est de rester unis et de nous soutenir. Un matelas peut faire toute la différence. Une couverture peut réchauffer un enfant. Un seul dollar peut apporter du réconfort et de la sécurité à une famille entière. La guerre continue, et les déplacements ainsi que les souffrances ne cessent pas. Nos proches sont épuisés, déplacés et ont besoin de soutien. Soyons là pour eux. Soyons solidaires et aidons à offrir un refuge sûr et digne à ces familles, surtout à celles qui dorment dans les rues. Personne ne devrait être obligé de dormir dehors. Nous demandons à chacun d’aider selon ses moyens. Chaque contribution, même petite, peut faire une grande différence. Restons unis les uns aux autres.
