2020 Lebanon Refugee Engagement
Through our partnership with Heart for Lebanon, this global(x) team will head to Lebanon. The country has a rich history, gorgeous landmarks, and warm, hospitable people. It’s also facing a refugee crisis that’s considered the worst humanitarian crisis since World War II. Heart for Lebanon was created to meet the spiritual and physical needs of some of the most vulnerable families and children.
We need a high-energy, compassionate team to help bring aid and hope to the refugee settlements in Lebanon. From Atlanta, this team will fly to Beirut, Lebanon’s capital city, and will likely stay at a nearby hotel or the new center in Bekaa Valley.
This global(x) team will work alongside the Heart for Lebanon staff to bring humanitarian aid to these refugee families. During your visit, you’ll help at-risk children by facilitating children’s programs and help families by visiting with them in their temporary homes and distributing food.
Globally, this is an area and a group of people who are in extreme need of hope, support, and aid. If you’re ready to serve the families and children who are at the center of the refugee crisis, apply now.
