Lebanon Support Competitors

Across 55 countries and nearly 45 years , we have led the global fight against hunger. We save the lives of children and their families. We are there for them before and after disaster strikes. We enable people to provide for themselves, see their children grow up strong, and for whole communities to prosper. We constantly search for more effective solutions, while sharing our knowledge and expertise with the world. We push for long-term change. We will never give up. Until the world is free from hunger.

An international non-profit, we serve the financially excluded, especially underbanked women, refugees and communities impacted by forced displacement, climate-vulnerable people and systemically marginalized communities in the United States. By connecting people through crowdfunded loans, Kiva puts the power of financial inclusion in all our hands. Since 2005, the Kiva community has raised over $2 billion in loans, reaching over 5 million people in 84 countries.

Who We Are The Lebanese Red Cross (LRC) is a humanitarian organization that has been part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement since 1947. We are led by 2700 volunteers and 600 members, all working towards one mission: to provide relief to victims of natural and human-made disasters, help people prevent, prepare for and respond to emergencies, and to mitigate the suffering of the most vulnerable. What We Do In 2016, the LRC provided free ambulance and first aid services to more than 262,000 people in need all over the Lebanese territory. We were also able to aid more than 1,073,300 beneficiaries through our blood transfusion services, medico-social and primary healthcare centers, disaster management units, youth activities, and nursing institutes. What We Aim For We are always striving to do better and to help more people, and ultimately aim to increase our capacities to respond to 100% of calls for emergency medical aid.
