And they need your help.

Medical supplies - ambulances sent from the UAE to Lebanon through Syria - were bombed. Supplies, such as blood, are scarce. Equipment is in shortage.

Abbas was wounded in a missile attack, and is now in a hospital in Saida.



These three brothers, Nabil, Ramzi, and Ali, were wounded in that same attack.



There are half a million displaced civilians, and over 500 wounded. Refugees need food, water, blankets, medicine. Wounded need blood, medical equipment. Families are sharing schools, parks, and streets. The school my mother works (worked) in has over a thousand refugees.

They all need help.

I have received many emails from people around the world asking for what they can do to ease the pain of Lebanon. At the top of my blog there are accounts that deposits can be made in. Links for the Lebanese Red Cross are available there. Other aid groups can be found here. For those in Lebanon, blood can be donated through the centers seen here.
The FPM relief center in Kaslik (Cafe Columbia Bldg) has also asked for Blood (0 negative), Food (Milk, Bread), Blankets and Mattresses, and Diapers (Ask for Dany Daou).
