Emergency Disaster Appeal

Lebanon

We are currently asking for support towards the humanitarian need in Beirut, Lebanon, following the explosion on August 4th 2020. This has meant that more than 300,000 have been displaced from their homes, injured, businesses destroyed, over 100 dead and many missing.

Lions in Lebanon are working to provide shelter, food, water and much more is being provided already, but they need our and your help now!

100% of the money we receive will go directly to helping the disaster.

About the fund

The Lions International Disaster Fund has been established so that Lions can act quickly when a major disaster occurs. Funds raised will be used to help us provide the right kind of support to those in need, whether there has been a flood, hurricane, fire or other major disaster. Over the years we have assisted with many international disasters, providing assistance as swiftly as possible.

We have great experience providing humanitarian support, having helped those in Haiti following the devastating 2010 earthquake and also those in the Philippines following Typhoon Haiyan which was one of the strongest tropical cyclones ever recorded.

It is vital that we grow these funds so that immediate action can be taken when a significant national or international disaster occurs. Lions can deliver support so long as the essential funds are in place.

Through our experience we understand how essential it is that funds are readily available when a disaster happens so that we can take immediate action, rather than having to delay relief efforts while fundraising takes place.
