Storm hits Lebanon

A two day storm batters Lebanon adding thick layers of snow, blocking roads, and cutting power supply in some areas.

Syrian refugees are facing treacherous winter conditions, leaving many without heat as temperatures drop well below zero.

 MGR has distributed Winter Packs to refugee families in Lebanon, including warm winter clothing, bedding, and firewood so they can keep warm through the freezing conditions. Please continue to support our appeal so we can help more families in their plight against the winter storms.

Freezing temperatures in Syria

The civil war in Syria has destroyed many lives, but the freezing weather is continuing to make survival for the millions of vulnerable children even harder!

There are at least 7 million children who have fled to refugee camps or have been internally displaced, battling through the sub zero temperatures in make shift shelters and tents. Many don't even have access to basic necessities such as secure shelters, warm clothing and heating.

Our Winter Appeal is providing food, blankets, warm clothing, and fuel to vulnerable families in Lebanon refugee camps. 

Please give when you can, donating is easy. You can visit our website, www.muslimglobalrelief.org, call us 01282 604055, text "WEMR05" plus amount to 70070 or by filling in a donation form, available here
