Offering a Helping HEART - TIME TO ACT
Since 2019, Lebanon has been enduring one of the world’s worst economic crises, marked by a collapsing infrastructure, political paralysis, and widespread corruption. The healthcare sector has been severely affected, with over 70% of the population now lacking access to essential medications and more than half without healthcare coverage. Six Primary Health Care Centers have already closed due to insecurity, and the use of white phosphorus bombs has added to the devastation. The situation has been further exacerbated by recent Israel hostilities and carpet bombing all over Lebanon, claiming the lives of more than 2,000 people and displacing around ONE MILLION people.
MedGlobal has been on the ground since 2018, providing essential healthcare services and responding to evolving needs, including supporting healthcare facilities in the Beqaa region, launching a home healthcare program in Beirut, and establishing Lebanon’s first mobile mental health clinic.

In light of escalating hostilities and the strained healthcare system, MedGlobal is partnering with the Lebanese Ministry of Health (MoH) to establish the Health Emergency Administration & Response Team (HEART). This includes deploying a mobile medical unit to distribute essential medications directly to shelters in Beirut, North, and Beqaa. This initiative will ensure that displaced families, particularly those with chronic conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and asthma, receive the care they need. We will partner with local pharmacies, health authorities, and community healthcare providers to source and distribute these medications tailored to the specific needs of the displaced population.
With your support, we can significantly expand our impact and reach more people in need.
