How to help Lebanon

A donation is the most direct way to help. Pick an organization you can verify and read how it will use your money. Our guides on how to donate to Lebanon and Lebanon relief organizations can help you choose.

If you would like to support our work, you can donate to Lights for Lebanon. Gifts pay for food, hygiene products, and basic supplies for displaced families.

Our Bethesda bake sale raised over $450, and our Pike & Rose bake sale raised over $250. A table, a hand-drawn sign, and homemade food were enough. Read how to start a fundraiser for Lebanon for the steps and the prices we used.

If you want to run something for our cause, message us on Instagram and we will talk it through.

Sharing a fundraiser or a fact helps only if it is accurate. Use sources that name their data, and check dates, because figures change quickly.

• The Lebanese government and the International Organization for Migration (IOM) report on how many people are displaced. On 2 April 2026, authorities reported more than one million.
• Read our cause page for the figures we use and where they come from.
• Link to the organization's own page, not a screenshot, so people can check it.

A club, a team, a place of worship, or a group of friends can each run a drive or an awareness event. Pick one clear goal, decide where the money will go, and tell people what happened afterward. Small, specific projects are easier to finish and easier for others to trust.

Before you collect goods, ask the organization whether it wants them. Aid groups generally ask for money, because shipping is slow and costly and local groups can buy what families need nearby.
