UNHCR | Protect families in Lebanon this winter | Donate now

Lebanon is still reeling from the recent war where airstrikes caused destruction, loss of life and displacement, alongside the effects of hyperinflation, poverty and a lack of resources.

1.4 million Syrians are currently seeking refuge in Lebanon. Families have not only suffered years of displacement and conflict, but are now experiencing desperate conditions in the aftermath of war in Lebanon. Despite additional assistance from UNHCR, nine in 10 refugee households live in extreme poverty, with little to protect them from the harsh winter weather.

Winters in the region can be incredibly harsh, bringing storms, flooding, snowfall and sub-zero temperatures.

Refugees living in Lebanon urgently need protection in the form of shelter, mental health support and vital cash assistance to buy essentials like food, medicine and fuel for heating.

Syrian families need our help. Your donations can provide life-saving support and help people survive the depths of winter.

Donate today.

Summary of donation information

Monthly donation: Consider making a monthly donation. Monthly donations help assist more families forced to flee. By making a regular gift to UNHCR, you can provide refugees and displaced people worldwide with ongoing relief, protection, and hope for a better future.
What does UNHCR do?

UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is a global organization working to save lives, protect rights and build a better future for refugees, internally displaced communities and stateless people. We work to ensure that everybody has the right to seek asylum and find refuge from violence or persecution.

Why should I donate monthly or on a regular basis?

By choosing to give a regular donation, you will be helping UNHCR to plan ahead and invest in long-term projects to improve the lives the refugees.

Faster help: Monthly donations allow UNHCR to respond to emergencies when a crisis occurs. Your gift can go where it's most needed.

Support of long-term operations: More predictable income helps UNHCR go beyond short-term emergency aid and provide families with ongoing relief and protection every single day.

Easy to donate: To set up a recurring donation, please choose the Monthly option in the form. You can always update your donations by contacting our Donor Care team at [email protected].

How does UNHCR spend my donation?

Your money helps UNHCR provide protection, shelter and other forms of assistance, and advocacy on behalf of displaced and stateless people every year. UNHCR staff work as closely as possible with and for people forced to flee, with 90 per cent of our workforce based in field locations. For further details on UNHCR's budget, read our Global Report.
