More than 800,000 people in Lebanon are without adequate food and shelter. As the humanitarian crisis rapidly escalates and violence continues to take hold, thousands of families—displaced from their homes and villages—are in desperate need of your help. With more than 11 years of experience working in hundreds of communities throughout the country, CHF has close ties with the families we are helping. Nearly all of CHF's staff in country are Lebanese, many of whom are now themselves displaced.
