2020 Lebanon – Meat Packages

August 10, 2020

Lebanon has faced a crippling combination of sanctions, unemployment, a devalued currency, food shortages and inflated prices.
.
To help ease some of the pressure felt by struggling families, @WishFoundation distributed meat packages to 157 families in South Lebanon in Stage 1 of its 12 month commitment to deliver essentials to struggling communities across the country.
.
The situation in Lebanon is changing daily, and with the recent Beirut disaster, we expect the situation to deteriorate further. A kg of meat costs close to 80,000 Lebanese pounds, resulting in many families going without meat for months.
.
Stage 2 will be executed in a few weeks with the objective of distributing chicken, fruit and vegetables to affected households.
.
This is in conjunction to our humanitarian response to the Beirut catastrophe of 4th August 2020. With your continued support, we will provide aid to those that need it most.
