In response to the escalating crisis in Lebanon and the growing number of displaced families across the country, Man wa Salwa, a Lebanese NGO officially registered under No. 2100 at the Ministry of Interior, is intensifying its humanitarian efforts to support those most affected.

Since 2023, Man wa Salwa has operated a consumer cooperative in the Beirut neighborhood of Furn El Chebbak, with a clear mission: to build a self-sustaining community where families can access essential goods at fair and affordable prices while supporting local producers.

Through collective solidarity, we have built a strong network of more than 450 families in Furn El Chebbak and surrounding areas.

Today, as many Lebanese families are displaced—living in shelters, schools, or even on the streets—the need has become urgent and overwhelming. Man wa Salwa is mobilizing its resources to:
• Provide food parcels and essential supplies
• Support displaced families seeking refuge in Beirut
• Strengthen community-based relief initiatives across Lebanon
• Ensure that donated funds are used directly to purchase essential goods

We are calling on people inside Lebanon and especially members of the Lebanese diaspora to stand in solidarity during this critical time.

Every contribution — no matter how small — can help provide food, dignity, and relief to families facing hardship.

Together, we can ensure that no one is left behind.
