EMERGENCY APPEAL - MIDDLE EAST CRISIS

Lebanon's Children Need Help Now.
What Happened?
On 2 March 2026, renewed hostilities erupted across Lebanon — airstrikes hitting Beirut, Bekaa, Baalbek-Hermel, and the south. More than 1,000,000 people were forced to flee overnight, including 300,000 children — many of whom have already lived through repeated cycles of conflict and displacement.
Shelters are overwhelmed, with 347 out of 389 already at full capacity. Across Lebanon, 2.99 million people — more than half the population — need urgent humanitarian assistance. For children here, this marks the sixth consecutive year of disrupted education, shattered safety, and compounding trauma.
What World Vision Is Doing
Within hours of the escalation, our teams were on the ground. We've already reached more than 150,000 people with hot meals, ready-to-eat food, and emergency support — prioritising displaced children and families in collective shelters. We're also working to keep children connected to psychosocial support, safe spaces, and education.
But our resources are critically limited and running out fast.
Needs Are Rising. Help Us Reach More People
We need USD 15 million (approximately RM60 million) to deliver food, clean water, and child protection services to those who need it most.
Your support can make an immediate impact:
• For around RM145, you can feed a family of 5 for 15 days.
• For around RM300, you can supply a family of 5 with clean water for 2 months.
• For around RM780, you can keep a family of 5 warm with sufficient heating fuel for 2 months.
• For around RM3,935, you can help repair and weatherproof a shelter, keeping displaced families safe from the cold and rain.
Urgent support is required to ensure continuity of these interventions and prevent further deterioration for affected families.
