In Lebanon, tens of thousands of civilians are being hit by bombings.

About 500 people have already lost their lives, including 35 children, and at least 1,500 have been injured. Tens of thousands of families have had to flee their homes to seek refuge in other parts of the country. Faced with the magnitude of the situation, the Lebanese urgently need help.

Our teams are already mobilised to provide relief to displaced populations and provide them with food aid. We will scale up our response to provide them with food and water, as well as basic necessities such as mattresses, blankets and pillows.

Please give now to support families devastated by this escalation of conflict in the middle east.

Donations over $2 are tax deductible

Should the funds raised through an emergency appeal exceed the amount required to meet the immediate and longer term needs of the people in the affected areas, or if there are changes in circumstances beyond CARE’s control which limit its ability to utilise all funds in the affected areas, CARE will direct excess funds to other emergency relief activities in the future.

Monthly donation will go to emergency relief & preparedness activities where it is needed most.
