The situation has led to significant violence and instability, with clashes occurring between various armed groups and the Israeli military, particularly in southern Lebanon. The United Nations estimates that civilian casualties have been high, with thousands reported injured and hundreds killed since the escalation began. Displacement is also a major concern, as many people are fleeing their homes to escape the violence.

Urgent Supplies for Displaced Families & Children
We are supporting 70 displaced families living in overcrowded shelters and unfurnished apartments with limited access to hygiene, food, and basic necessities. Why We Need Your Help? Although most aid is reaching families in schools and the Beirut area, those who have relocated to unfurnished apartments, especially in the North, often go unnoticed. These families are using their savings to pay for high rent costs and require our support to maintain stability until they can return home.

Investing in Resilience
Hello, my name is Arsho Tenbelian. For over a year, we’ve endured the looming threat of conflict on Lebanon’s southern border. But in the last 35 days, we’ve found ourselves in a full-scale war where no one is safe, and there are no secure zones. Between surviving each day and striving for a dignified life, I am struggling—but I refuse to give up on my dreams and my life just because I’m caught in a war I didn’t sign up for. The Goal: I am pursuing a master’s degree in Public Policy and International Affairs, which has always been a pathway for me to contribute meaningfully to communities in Lebanon and beyond. Education is more than an achievement; it’s my foundation for independence, resilience, and positive impact. However, with Lebanon’s ongoing turmoil, the stability needed to complete my studies and maintain my autonomy has become increasingly difficult. Why Your Support Matters: Your support in this campaign will help me achieve the following: 1. Education Continuity: Completing my master’s program is not just a career goal; it’s my way of keeping hope alive and preparing to contribute to humanitarian and policy efforts, especially in times of crisis. 2. Maintaining Autonomy: Independence is central to my values. Your support would help me remain self-sufficient during these trying times. 3. A Dignified Life Amidst Conflict: Between the chaos and insecurity, living with dignity is a daily challenge. This campaign will allow me to secure my essential needs, focus on my education, and live in resilience. My Current Reality: As war engulfs us, each day is a difficult balance between simply surviving and holding on to a future that still feels possible. I know I am not alone in this struggle, and I am grateful for any support that helps me keep moving forward—both to survive today and to achieve the life I envision for tomorrow. Thank you for reading my story. Your help, whether through donations or sharing this campaign, means everything in my journey to resilience and empowerment.
