The devastation in Beirut after the horrendous disaster has left thousands of families now homeless
Normally we would have organised collections from the public but due to Covid 19 we have to think differently and appeal through social media & the press.
Fortunately the Rotary Clubs in Lebanon have acted quickly and through our own District Governor we now have a contact with the Rotary Club of Beirut Cedars who are able to provide targeted help. The club is donating £250 to go to Health where one of their doctor members is doing house to house calls in the damaged areas of Beirut . Also they need to support getting back into service over 50% of health facilities which have been damaged.
