WFWPI-Europe EMERGENCY FUND FOR BEIRUT

Dear friends and colleagues,

The devastating explosion in Beirut on August 4th has destroyed almost half of the city, wiping out whole neighborhoods and causing hundreds of deaths and thousands of injured people.

Associates of WFWP-Europe in the area have confirmed that thousands of families have lost their homes.

Aware of the tragic moment that Lebanon is going through, WFWP-Europe has taken the initiative to launch a campaign to raise funds that will allow for the reconstruction of some homes and the purchase of electricity generators.

Therefore, we are asking you to help alleviate the Lebanese people's pressing needs at this moment by joining this campaign and making a donation.

In face of such a humanitarian emergency, time is of the essence!

Please send your donation to:
