Supporting Displaced Children in Lebanon

As violence continues to escalate across Lebanon, hundreds of thousands of families have been forced to flee their homes with little warning. Among them are vast numbers of children, now displaced, vulnerable, and in urgent need of support.


Across the country, families are seeking safety wherever they can. While some have found shelter in schools and public buildings, many others remain in temporary conditions, sleeping in cars or out in the open, often without reliable access to food, clean water, or basic supplies.



Emergency Relief on the Ground


In response to the crisis, Give a Child a Brighter Future is providing essential food and supplies to displaced families across Lebanon, helping to meet immediate needs.


Food parcels are being distributed to sustain families during this period of uncertainty. Alongside this, baby nutrition remains a key priority, with infant milk and essential nourishment provided to ensure that even the youngest children receive the care they need.


Basic baby essentials, including nappies and other daily necessities, are also being delivered to support families who have been forced to leave everything behind. These vital supplies provide not only relief, but also a sense of stability during extremely difficult circumstances.

Reaching the Most Vulnerable


Ali, just four years old, has already experienced unimaginable loss, having lost his parents and siblings. Now displaced, small moments of comfort, such as receiving a toy or opening a box of supplies, become deeply meaningful.


Ivana, a three-year-old girl with severe burn injuries, was displaced with her family from the South and moved between hospitals before reaching safety. Access to basic essentials offers a small but important sense of comfort as she and her family begin to recover.


Stories like these are a reminder of why this work matters and the importance of continuing to reach children most in need. At a time of uncertainty and fear, access to basic essentials can make a significant difference. Through ongoing relief efforts, Give a Child a Brighter Future remains committed to supporting displaced children and their families, ensuring they receive the care and dignity they deserve. Every contribution helps extend this support, reaching more families and providing hope in the midst of crisis.

Through its ongoing work in Lebanon, Give a Child a Brighter Future is helping strengthen emergency medical care for children by equipping a new Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) at the Turkish Trauma & Emergency Hospital, providing life-saving support to critically ill patients across the region. The hospital, which reopened in November 2024, had remained inactive for years due to local political challenges before being restored to address the critical shortage of hospitals in South Lebanon. Today, it stands as the only Trauma and Emergency Centre in the region, playing a vital role in delivering urgent care. Strengthening Emergency Care for Children At the heart of this effort is the newly equipped Paediatric Intensive Care Unit, designed to provide specialised care for children facing severe illness or injury. The unit includes five dedicated treatment rooms fitted with essential medical equipment, including respirators, patient monitoring systems, ultrasound imaging, and diagnostic tools, ensuring that children can receive the highest level of care when they need it most.

Through its partnership with Hammoud Hospital University Medical Center, Give a Child a Brighter Future is helping provide life-saving care to children across South Lebanon, ensuring that young patients facing cancer can access the treatment they urgently need. At the heart of this effort is the Lisa Moufarrige Paediatric Haematology Oncology Center, a dedicated facility designed to expand access to specialised care while offering children and their families renewed hope during some of life’s most difficult moments. The centre is named in loving memory of Lisa Moufarrige (1969–2023), a deeply valued committee member whose compassion, dedication, and tireless work with the charity helped make this project possible. Her legacy lives on through the children and families who now receive vital care at the centre. A Dedicated Space for Treatment and Care Since opening in October 2023, the centre has provided a welcoming, fully equipped space to support children through complex treatment. Building on a unit first established in 2020, it now serves as a key referral centre for paediatric patients across South Lebanon. The facility includes seven specialised patient rooms, infusion and inpatient treatment areas, procedure rooms, and a dedicated dialysis unit for children, bringing essential services together in one place. This integrated approach allows children to receive treatment closer to home, easing the burden on families and supporting continuity throughout their journey. Care is delivered by highly trained medical, nursing, and pharmacy teams, working closely with specialists at the American University of Beirut Medical Center to maintain a high standard of diagnosis and support. The centre treats patients from birth to 18 years old, working in partnership with the Children's Cancer Center of Lebanon to improve access, including financial support for those in need, while offering a full range of services such as chemotherapy and targeted therapies.
