Emergency Relief in Lebanon

Organization information

Anera

Location: Washington, United States of America

Summary

On Aug 4, a massive explosion shook Beirut, killing untold numbers of people and injuring thousands. The blast left 300,000 homeless and overwhelmed Lebanon's healthcare system during the country's worst economic and health crises. Rapid currency devaluation and inflation in Lebanon and the ongoing pandemic have already pushed most of Lebanon's refugee population into abject poverty. Anera is responding, but donated humanitarian supplies will have to ship by air, raising costs to transport aid.
