UNHCR | Help families forced to flee in Lebanon
Since September 2023, UNHCR and partners have been supporting with essential relief to both Lebanese and refugee families, including core relief items, cash assistance, and psychosocial support.
Hundreds of thousands of people (both Lebanese and Syrians) have crossed from Lebanon to Syria fleeing the hostilities. The majority of them are children.
UNHCR is assisting displaced people across Lebanon with core relief items, and cash assistance and is improving shelters so that families do not have to sleep out in the open. We are at the border points in Syria providing water, core relief items and psychological support to people who have fled, many on foot, to try to find safety.

If you are resident in Switzerland, your donation is tax deductible. Direct federal tax: 20% of net income, provided that the amount of the donation is at least 100 francs. Municipal taxes: depending on the canton, up to 20% of net income for individuals and 20% for companies. For further information, please contact the tax authorities in your canton.
However, in the very rare case that this emergency response becomes fully funded, your support will be used to provide vital assistance to people forced to flee around the world.
We will happily explore with you the ways in which you can maximize your impact on the fate of people forced to flee in the way that fits you best. Please email us at partnerships@unrefugees.ch or call +41 22 552 78 08.
