Appeal for Humanitarian Aid Lebanon

Publication Date: 2024-10-31

The Lebanese Philosophy of Law Association (Association libanaise de philosophie du droit or ALIPHID), which promotes secularism and democracy, and whose statutes commit it undertaking charitable activities, launches an urgent appeal for humanitarian aid for displaced Lebanese persons. Lebanon has in fact been experiencing a veritable war with Israel for a year, but it has become a real catastrophe for the past 40 days, although mainly focused on Hezbollah. Nevertheless, almost the entire country is being bombed and it is civilians who pay the price: in particular those forced to leave their villages with nothing and take refuge in schools, in administrative centres or in tents located in public squares (around 1,200,000). Our association in such moments finds itself under an obligation to help. This is indeed one of the requirements of philosophy (wisdom, practical life, participation in the suffering of the people, etc.).

For such aid we neither know how, nor do we want, to turn to sources of funding other than friends and those who share our ideas (otherwise we would be selling out) and that is why we can barely save our website (https://aliphid.net).

How Can You Help?

You can help either by sending material (clothing, food, tents, mattresses, etc.) or by sending funds with which we buy products that we distribute to the displaced, with supporting documents, signed by public officials of the displaced persons groups, attached to the Ministry of Social Affairs.

You may contact us by email (aliphid123@gmail.com) concerning sending material aid or for any other question.
