Lebanon is at a breaking point. Families are losing everything
Lebanon is facing an unprecedented crisis. From escalating conflict and displacement to a collapsing economy, millions of our brothers and sisters are struggling to survive. Families who were once self-sufficient are now wondering where their next meal will come from, as basic necessities like clean water, food, and medicine become luxuries they can no longer afford.
At Penny Appeal, we believe in making a "Big Small Change" where it’s needed most. Our teams are on the ground right now, delivering life-saving aid to the most vulnerable communities in Lebanon.
But we cannot do it without you.
Why your Lebanon donation is urgent right now
The situation in Lebanon is deteriorating daily. Your Lebanon Emergency donation provides an immediate lifeline to those caught in the crossfire of poverty and conflict:
- Emergency Food Packs: Nutritious, life-saving meals for displaced families.
- Medical Aid: Essential supplies for overwhelmed hospitals and clinics.
- Clean Water & Hygiene: Preventing the spread of disease in crowded shelters.
- Winter Aid & Shelter: Providing warmth and safety for those forced from their homes.
When you donate to Lebanon through Penny Appeal, your support goes directly to the front lines. We prioritise the most forgotten-widows, orphans, and the elderly- ensuring that aid is delivered with dignity and care.
Whether it’s a food parcel for a family of five or a medical kit for a local clinic, every penny of your Sadaqah and Zakat is an incredible source of hope in a time of darkness.

We always aim to use your donation as intended.

If we cannot use your donation as you intended, it will fund similar projects in the same country or region.
What is the current situation in Lebanon and why is aid needed now?
Lebanon is currently enduring an unimaginable crisis that involves escalating conflict, mass displacement, and a severe economic collapse. With the currency losing most of its value, basic necessities like food, medicine, and clean water are out of reach for millions. Your Lebanon Emergency donation is vital right now to provide immediate relief to families who have been forced from their homes and are currently living in overcrowded shelters with no means of support.
Can I give my Zakat and Sadaqah to the Lebanon Emergency Appeal?
Yes. The people of Lebanon are currently in a state of extreme need, making them eligible recipients for both Zakat and Sadaqah. We ensure that your Zakat is handled with the utmost care and transparency, following Shariah guidelines to reach those who are most destitute. By giving your Zakat to Lebanon, you are fulfilling a sacred pillar of Islam while providing a literal lifeline to our brothers and sisters in their darkest hour.
Is Penny Appeal working on the ground in Lebanon?
Yes. Penny Appeal works with experienced partners and local teams who are already established on the ground in Lebanon. This allows us to respond rapidly to new developments in the crisis. Because we have local networks, we can navigate the challenges of the Lebanon crisis to deliver your aid directly to the front lines, reaching remote areas that larger organisations might overlook.
How can I be sure my donation to Lebanon is making a difference?
Transparency is at the heart of our "Small Change, Big Difference" philosophy. We provide regular updates on our Lebanon Emergency Appeal, showing you the tangible impact of your generosity. Whether it’s a photo of a food parcel distribution or a report from a medical clinic we’ve supplied, we want you to see exactly how your Sadaqah is saving lives and restoring hope to the people of Lebanon.
How does my donation help displaced families in Lebanon?
At Penny Appeal, we focus on immediate life-saving interventions. Your support allows us to deliver Emergency Food Packs filled with nutritious staples, provide medical supplies to hospitals struggling under the strain of the conflict, and distribute hygiene kits to prevent the spread of disease. We prioritise the most vulnerable, including widows, orphans, and the elderly, ensuring that aid reaches the "forgotten" communities in high-risk areas.
