Escalating conflict across the Middle East is putting children at grave risk. Your donation today can help provide food, water, shelter and protection for children in Lebanon and Gaza.
Violence is escalating across the Middle East, and children are paying the highest price.
In Lebanon, Gaza and across the region, families are being forced to flee their homes as hostilities intensify. Schools have become emergency shelters. Children are living in fear, uncertainty and displacement.

Your donation today can help provide lifesaving support.
Plan International is already responding alongside local partners.
With your support, we can provide food and clean drinking water, hygiene kits and menstrual health supplies, and blankets, mattresses and emergency relief items.
We also provide safe spaces where children can recover from trauma, child protection services for children separated from families, and emotional support and recreational activities.
The situation in Lebanon has deteriorated rapidly since early March.
More than 80,000 people have already been displaced, many seeking refuge in overcrowded shelters – including hundreds of schools that are no longer able to operate as places of learning.
Across the country, evacuation orders are affecting hundreds of thousands of people, forcing families to flee with almost nothing.
For children, the consequences are devastating:
Families separated while fleeing violence
Schools closed and education disrupted
Children living in overcrowded shelters
Increased risk of hunger, illness and trauma
Meanwhile in Gaza, children who have already endured years of conflict now face even deeper humanitarian hardship, with access to lifesaving aid increasingly uncertain.
Without urgent support, the situation will only worsen.
Our teams and partners are working urgently to reach families affected by the conflict.
Already we have distributed hundreds of emergency relief kits in shelters in Beirut and are scaling up distributions of food, hygiene supplies and essential household items for displaced families.
But the needs are growing rapidly.
Right now, children across the Middle East urgently need safety, care and hope.
Your donation today can help deliver lifesaving aid and protection to children and families caught in this crisis.
Please give what you can today.
