    Story

    AS per the instructions of JustGiving we had to move our fundraiser to the following page:

    https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/beirutexplosion

    The catastrophic explosion that hit Beirut Sea Port on August 4, 2020 has cost at least 137 lives and injured over 5,000 people. On top of this, at least 300,000 people have lost their homes. In the midst of this devastation, Basmeh and Zeitooneh has its teams on the ground to respond to the situation. Funds raised through this campaign will be used to provide shelter, food, water and medication to those affected by the explosion, and to carry out urgent repairs. Basmeh and Zeitooneh is coordinating with others to assess the damage in the worst-affected areas and ascertain what the most vital repairs are.

    The team’s efforts will adapt with ongoing assessment of needs. We are providing regular updates of our response on our Facebook page, which you can find here: https://www.facebook.com/basmehzeitooneh
