Support Displaced Lebanese Families
Campaign Description:
A humanitarian catastrophe is unfolding in Lebanon, and it’s nothing short of heartbreaking. Thousands of families from southern Lebanon have been displaced by the ongoing conflict, forced to flee their homes with nothing but the clothes on their backs. In Mount Lebanon, we’ve witnessed families arrive exhausted, with no shelter, food, or basic supplies. They are caught between the horrors of war and the failure of governmental support, left to navigate this crisis alone.
But we refuse to stand by and watch.
We are "Time for Solidarity", a committed network of over 100 volunteers working tirelessly to support the displaced. We have already provided essential relief to over 1,000 families but the need continues to grow daily. With no evacuation plan and an overwhelmed government, local schools and shelters are under-resourced and ill-prepared to handle this influx of people.
Our four relief centers across Aley—Aley City, Jurd Aley, and West Aley—are working around the clock to provide families with the essentials: mattresses, blankets, hygiene products, food, and urgent medical supplies. In these uncertain times, we are their only lifeline.
Here’s What We’ve Accomplished So Far:
(Just in two days; September 23rd and 24th)
- Equipped schools to serve as emergency shelters for displaced families.
- Distributed 200 Keshk & Zaatar manakish, 300 hot meals (rice and chicken), 200 additional meals (rice, chicken, and kibbeh), and 300 falafel sandwiches for lunch.
- Delivered 307 falafel sandwiches and 300+ sandwiches (cheese, mortadella, and labneh) across three meals in one day.
- Distributed bags of baby and adult diapers, 100+ bags of pads, 600+ cans of food, and more than 500 loaves of bread.
- Provided 100+ Mattresses.
- Supplied essential hygiene items including rolls of trash bags, mops, floor wipers, buckets, tissues, and cleaning supplies.
- Provided 40 sets of pajamas, clothing for children aged 6-12, and more than 300 jackets to those in need.
Despite these efforts, the scale of the crisis is immense, and the resources are rapidly running out.
The Crisis We’re Facing:
The district governor of Aley, Badr Zaidan, recently reported on the 24th of September that over 13,000+ people have been displaced to the region, far exceeding the area’s capacity. Shelters are full, food and medical supplies are running out, and skyrocketing rent prices are leaving families without a roof over their heads. With government support almost non-existent, these families are left vulnerable, many sleeping on cold floors or in their cars.
