In recent years, Lebanon has faced a series of devastating crises: a crippling economic collapse, the catastrophic Beirut Port explosion, widespread political instability, and most recently, the harrowing effects of the regional geopolitical conflict. These events have left communities in ruin, institutions weakened, and countless families struggling to survive.
With your support, we can transform these challenges into opportunities and restore dignity to the Lebanese people. Now is the time to unite, rebuild, and thrive. Through collective determination and action, Lebanon will not only survive but emerge stronger than ever.
ALAM is a Swiss non-profit association
aiming to alleviate the pain of Lebanon and its suffering citizens.
Lebanon is facing an escalating humanitarian crisis, worsened by the recent conflict. Famine continues to threaten the most vulnerable—children, the elderly, and the homeless—while hyperinflation has plunged countless families into poverty. The need for food, clothing, and essential supplies is more urgent than ever.
Due to the recent challenges, the need for medicines and supplies has become even more critical. There is an urgent need for financial support, qualified healthcare personnel, and medical equipment—not only for hospitals but also for specialized health facilities. Rebuilding hospitals remains an ongoing process.
The multitude of crises has placed unprecedented social and economic pressure on Lebanon’s educational system, which once ranked among the best in the region. Many schools have been damaged or destroyed. Parents, already grappling with hyperinflation and poverty, can no longer afford tuition fees in a country where more than half of the educational system is privately funded. Without immediate intervention, Lebanon risks losing an entire generation’s access to quality education.
SMEs are the backbone of any economy, driving prosperity and job creation. Lebanon is renowned for its expertise in niche sectors such as agriculture, handicrafts, embroidery, and IT, and is home to a wealth of skilled and talented workers. By promoting and supporting these enterprises, more Lebanese may be encouraged to remain in the country.
Many facilities in critical sectors have been damaged or destroyed, including those for solid waste recycling, sorting and composting, healthcare waste storage, solid waste collection and transport, and environmental monitoring. In addition, projects focused on clean air, clean water, recycling, and renewable energy have been either abandoned or indefinitely delayed.
