Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, has been struck by tragedy this week.
On Tuesday, Beirut experienced an explosion that has left over 150 people dead, 5,000 people injured, and 80 people missing. The explosion was caused by 2,750 tons of ammonium nitrate being stored in the port of Beirut for six years without safety measures.
Unfortunately, because of Lebanon’s corrupt government, signing petitions won’t do anything. There are ways you can help, though — the most important thing we can do right now to help the people of Beirut is to donate. Here are 11 organizations that you can donate to in order to help the people of Beirut deal with this tragedy.
Impact Lebanon: Impact Lebanon is providing disaster relief and shelter for victims of the explosion. They are currently trying to raise £5 million in relief. You can also find them on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook. International Medical Corps: This organization is a global humanitarian effort that provides emergency medical relief. You can also find them on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook.
Food Blessed: This is a local hunger relief initiative in Beirut. They have said that they’re allocating a huge part of their donations to help those who have been directly and indirectly affected by the explosion, while still providing hunger relief to those in need. You can also find them on Instagram or Facebook.
