Tens of thousands of people are fleeing from airstrikes across Lebanon with only what they can carry. The number of people displaced could rise substantially if the fighting does not end.
We’re assessing the number of people without shelter as the conflict escalates and considering how we can widen our response in the Middle East if necessary.
The rules of war are clear. Civilians must be protected at all times.
Please donate today. Together we can help families in Lebanon and around the world.

How is ShelterBox helping?
We’re looking to support people in Lebanon who are sheltering in communal spaces like schools. Essential items like mattresses and blankets can protect them from the cold this winter.
People won’t be returning home anytime soon, so household items and emergency shelter will be needed for several months.
We’ll be working with local organizations in Lebanon, so we’ll be able to reach people quickly.
The situation for all people in the Middle East is devastating, but we must remain neutral and apolitical and support those we can. Read more about our Decision to Deploy Criteria to learn how we make the difficult decisions.
Why Support ShelterBox?
With over 20 years of experience, we are experts in emergency shelter after disaster.
From Cameroon to Gaza, all the way to the Philippines and the Caribbean, we have provided shelter to almost 3 million people so far. And in these uncertain times, your support is more valuable than ever.
We won’t stop until we see a world where no family goes without shelter after disaster. Will you help us?
