Donate nowSince 2012, Human Appeal has been a trusted partner in Lebanon — through conflict, the 2020 Beirut blast, and now this escalating emergency. Our experienced field teams work directly with communities across Saida and southern Lebanon.
Lebanon is experiencing a severe escalation in hostilities. Heavy airstrikes have killed more than 60 civilians and wounded over 350 people across Beirut's southern suburbs, the Bekaa Valley, Tyre, Nabatieh, and villages across southern Lebanon. Entire neighbourhoods and more than 53 villages have been placed under evacuation orders, triggering mass panic and displacement on a devastating scale.
Saida has become a desperate refuge for fleeing families. More than 9,000 displaced individuals — including thousands of children — are now crammed into 23 public schools and temporary collective shelters never designed for this purpose. Families are sleeping on cold classroom floors, having fled their homes with nothing.
With incomes lost, savings exhausted, and no access to cooking facilities, displaced families are becoming entirely dependent on humanitarian aid. Our teams on the ground are distributing hot meals daily — and with your support, we can reach every family that needs us.
Your donation enables Human Appeal to provide hot meals every day for two months to 792 displaced families — 3,960 people — sheltering in school-based collective centres in Saida, southern Lebanon.
1. Rapid Needs Assessment
Our teams work with Saida's municipality and ISWA partners to identify the most vulnerable families across 23 school shelters, verifying need before distribution begins.
2. Local Sourcing in Saida
Ingredients are sourced locally across Saida and southern Lebanon, supporting the local economy while ensuring meals are fresh, culturally appropriate, and Halal-certified.
3. Same-Day Preparation & Distribution
Hot meals are prepared and delivered to Hikmat Al-Sabbagh, Al Omania School, and Amjad Vocational Centre every single day.
4. Monitoring & Scale-Up
Rapid assessments continue daily to identify further families and expand our operation to additional shelter centres across Sidon and southern Lebanon.
"Whoever saves a life, saves the whole of mankind."
Qur'an, 5:32
Emergency
Heavy airstrikes have forced thousands of families to flee their homes across southern Lebanon, Beirut, the Bekaa Valley, Tyre, and Nabatieh.

Emergency
Almost all our projects are sourced locally in Gaza. Your support provides mobile clinics, mobile schools, clean water, food parcels, fresh vegetables, and hot meals. Families in Gaza urgently need your help.
Emergency
More than one thousand days of conflict has left an entire population facing famine — but your sadaqah can bring hope. We are on the ground delivering fresh bread daily through our bakery project, hot meals to patients and children, clean water, hearing care, hygiene kits, and urgent aid to those most at risk. Your charity puts food in empty homes, water in tired hands, and dignity back into fragile lives. The Prophet ﷺ said charity shields from calamity — let yours reach those who need it most.
Human Appeal is committed to providing aid in the country or programme that you select. In the event we complete the programme, exceed the required funds, or are denied access to a particular country for reasons beyond our control, Human Appeal reserves the right to reallocate your donation to another programme where it is needed most.
