From Hunger to Joy: Your Qurbani Brought Eid Home

By Assem E Merie | Project Leader

Introduction
Amid Lebanon’s ongoing economic collapse and deepening poverty, Qurbani 2025: Eid with Dignity for Every Family was launched to restore hope, dignity, and nourishment to families in need. Implemented in Beirut, Saida, Beqaa, Tripoli, and Tyre, the project provided fresh Qurbani meat and new clothing during Eid to vulnerable Palestinian, Syrian, and Lebanese families especially widows, orphans, and elderly persons. This initiative directly contributed to SDG 1 (No Poverty), SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), and SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being).

What We Achieved Together
Thanks to your generosity, we reached 3,670 families - around 18,353 individuals. The project included:

  • Qurbani meat distribution, offering families protein-rich food many hadn’t accessed in months.

  • New Eid clothing for children, bringing moments of joy, pride, and normalcy.
    This support provided not just material relief, but also emotional healing during a sacred time.

Stories of Joy and Resilience
Rami, 10, Beirut camp: “Eid felt real this year. I wore new clothes and ate meat with my cousins. My mother said someone far away remembered us.”
Um Basel, Beqaa: “I thought Eid would pass like any other day, but we cooked a real Eid meal. My children smiled for the first time in weeks.”
Widad, Saida: “My children danced when they saw the meat and clothes. I was proud to give them an Eid like other children.”

The Impact
You helped families celebrate Eid with dignity, not despair. You restored joy to over 18,000 people making sure their tables were full, their children smiled, and their hearts remembered kindness. Your support reaffirmed the spirit of Eid: unity, compassion, and shared humanity.

Thank you. From every family you reached, our gratitude is endless.
