Amidst the rising regional conflict following the US and Israel’s first attacks on Iran at the end of February, Lebanon is one of the countries which has been worst affected following Israel’s onslaught of attacks on the nation.
According to the UN, more than 700,000 people have been displaced – including tens of thousands of families – as Israeli airstrikes have been targeting the South of Lebanon, Bekaa Valley and the capital Beirut.
As displacement continues, many people in Lebanon have been left with no where to go and now local initiatives and charities are doing the utmost to provide to those suffering.
Below, GRAZIA has compiled a list of on-the-ground organisations currently helping those who have been displaced or injured, which you can donate to help, too.
The Lebanese Food Bank
Launched in 2011, the Lebanese Food Bank has continually provided support for those in need across Lebanon. As a member of the Food Banking Regional Network in Dubai, the LFB distributes food for people across Lebanon.
The Lebanese Red Cross
For over 80 years, the Lebanese Red Cross has been an organisation recognised by the Lebanese government, providing medical aid to those in need including ambulance services and blood support.
Egna Legna Besidet
This grassroots organisation is based in Beirut which is migrant-led supporting and protecting the rights of domestic workers across the country providing emergency aid including food, shelter and medical referrals to those who need it, as well as much more.
Endless Medical Advantage
Endless Medical Advantage is a Syrian-led humanitarian initiative providing mobile medical clinics and essential relief to vulnerable and refugee communities across Lebanon and Syria. By delivering primary healthcare, medicines, and urgent support directly to camps and underserved areas, the organisation ensures lifesaving care reaches those with limited access to medical services.

Working with local partners, the IRC delivers emergency cash assistance, healthcare, education, and protection services for vulnerable families, including refugees and displaced people.
